Thanks for the questions! I don’t use a test kit. I know. Flame away. I get it. I have never deep cleaned so I will check out that link, thanks. We have a SWG for chlorine. Will need to do the ping pong ball test! I really suspect my sand filter at this point. Thanks!, Oh...

Thanks in advance for any ideas! 5 year old Fiberglass SWG pool(approx 15k gallons) with sand filter and all pentair components. Last year replaced pump with variable speed pump. Automatic cover so pool stays covered when not in use. This year I have noticed the pool is more dirty. Water...

Based on that, I believe I have silicone. Now, any suggestions on how to best remove black mold from silicone?

Got a picture of it but not sure how well you will be able to see it. It does NOT appear to have a greenish color. Any thoughts? Thanks again for any help with this!

Not sure if it is silicone as the tile was on the pool when it arrived as the manufacturer installed the tile. Any way to tell? Is silicone not the right type of grout?

Thanks! Will do that first thing tomorrow morning and will report back.

Hoping someone can help. Fiberglass pool with SWG and waterline tile. Pool is about 3 years old. The side that is full shade has black stains starting to appear in the grout. I have tried chlorine in a spray bottle with a brush. No luck. I have tried soft scrub and a brush. No luck. Lastly I...

Thanks all! Will give these a try and report back.

Fiberglass pool with under mount track cover with bullnose pavers for coping. Starting to notice after lots of kids in the pool with lots of splashing I have a lot of paver base sand at the bottom of my pool. It appears a very small gap exist between my paver and the top of the undercount track...

I have had the same hole pop up in my cement deck as well. I am worried about the water causing the hole to expand. Any suggestion on patching or fixing the hole?

Need the wisdom of this forum on a pool install question! Fiberglass pool being shipped to PB on monday(3/4) and PB wants to dig hole and install pool on Tuesday. While we are very anxious to get the pool in the ground and start the pool decking, hookup, etc, the temperature this past week has...

sure, sorry about that. Contract says PAL2000 lights, I think it is 2 lights. 14x31 Viking pool, 1.0 hp pentair pump. Auto cover...can the control system control the cover? Thanks.

I am working with several pool builders on what I would call a modest build. Inground fiberglass pool with 2 Laminars, heater, swg(intelli-something or other), sand filter. All of the packages include the Easytouch. It seems cool and I like the idea, but is it over kill for my modest set up...

We are still trying to determine which fiberglass pool to go with and have talked with PB for Viking, Leasure, and San Juan. Recently we came across a company that installs "Blue Heron" fiberglass pools. I cannot find anything on this forum or the internet about this brand. Any one have...

I have read many of the threads on here and other sites about sand vs gravel vs free flow for a fiberglass pool. However, most seem somewhat dated so I was looking for any recent thoughts about is sand OK for backfill of a fiberglass pool or is it an absolute must that gravel or free flow be...

Thanks for the reply. I was thinking the super flow was limited to 1 1/2 inches. We will have two streams from the pool deck into the pool and probably 115v and will probably just use a robot cleaner.

In the next month I will start the process of having a new viking Carmel pool(14x30) pool installed. I am really struggling with finding the difference between the 1.0hp WhisperFlo and the 1.0hp Superflo. I have read on here that the Whisperflo will produce more flow, but what does that mean...
