    Cicada killing wasp

    We have cicada killing wasps near our pool. They are building nest in the concrete joints around the pool. Everything I have read says that they are pretty harmless to people but I don't want them near the pool. They terrify me and my children because of their size. What can I do to get rid...

    Temp

    Can I do anything to lower the temp of the water in my pool? I have tried floating bleach jugs filled with ice (filled them with water and froze them). That didn't help.

    I use about 3 quarts per day too. I have three kids who are constantly in the pool along with their friends and we also get tons of sun. I have an 8 gallon liquidator and fill it up about every 1.5 weeks. :-D

    Roll call: What cleaner do you use? Are you happy with it?

    I have a nitro wall climber. It works pretty well and for the money I guess it actually works great. We don't have a booster pump or a dedicated suction line. I have had a 4 wheel cleaner which was just ok. I didn't like having to fill the vac hose everytime I wanted to use it. Other than...

    pH staying up

    No, no waterfall or other water feature. I also have a vinyl liner. I, too, don't know how high the pH will rise because once it hits 7.8 I lower it. I guess it is not a huge promblem....just wondering if there is anything I can do to stabilize it.

    pH staying up

    I am having a problem with my pH staying around 7.8 this year. The water is perfect otherwise. I would just like to see the pH hold around 7.4. I am adding muriatic acid about once a week to adjust. I have added a liquidator this year instead of daily dosing with bleach. Any suggestions?

    Need a bit of help..... PICTURE included

    That is what I thought but I wanted to ask the experts on here before I drilled new holes into my plumbing. You guys have never failed me! So would you just leave the black hose intact?

    Need a bit of help..... PICTURE included

    I am going to hook up my liquidator this weekend and have a question. Our pool had a chlorinator once (before we bought the house). It was taken off for whatever reason and the black hose was put on at that point. Can I just hook the liquidator up where the chlorinator once was?
