    Metals… old stainless sided pool.

    I’m ready to give up and fill it in. The never ending iron coming off these old steel walls, most likely their connectors and where they meet the plaster provides and endless ugly pool.

    Raypak 106a clicking not igniting

    Yes both are on, I have tried turning it off and on, too, just in case it was stuck. Is there a bleed screw on that valve? I can’t get it to budge. Didn’t want to use force. Have never smelled gas while letting it click and flicker the pilot on and off for 30 minutes before. Gas co told me it...

    Raypak 106a clicking not igniting

    Thanks, I went through the troubleshooting in the manual, too. Does anyone know if there is a gas bleed screw? I have never smelled gas and want to rule that out. The gas company hooked it up, but can’t come out until next week.

    Raypak 106a clicking not igniting

    I bought a 106a from someone who’s HOA wouldn’t let him have an above ground pool. Gas company hooked it up and I rerouted the pvc to it. When I hit the on switched it sounds like it’s trying to light the pilot, but it just keeps trying over and over. I let it go for 30 mins thinking it would...

    What to do with corroded light niche/fittings? chrome gone

    I used a Vulkem product 5 years ago to seal this, but it peeled off in a few locations (i didn't prime the metal). Vulkem states specifically not to use this produce underwater... I called their support. Pool store sells it and says thats what everyone uses. I have a few left over that are...

    What to do with corroded light niche/fittings? chrome gone

    I bought an old house with an old pool... (skip to next paragraph) (background) I should have tore it out, but my kids enjoy it and building a new one isn't a financial option. Its stainless steel sides and plaster bottom. It was trashed when I bought the house and I sand blasted the peeling...
