    Breaker Trips - New Pump, New Breaker, Working Fine until Tropical Storm Henri

My thought is that something in the pump or in the plug was wet after the history-making storm of two months worth of...

    Breaker Trips - New Pump, New Breaker, Working Fine until Tropical Storm Henri

    I am having trouble finding the source that causes the breaker to trip. Prior to the storm on Friday, upon learning that 6 inches of rain were expected, I ran the pump to backwash, rinse, then waste, to lower the water level by about 4 inches. I left the pump off and the waste hose connected...

    What is it: Mustard Algae, Pollen, Dirt, or Some of Each?

    I have read as many mustard algae threads as I could find but I am stumped, maybe I am overlooking something. About a month ago I could see a dry yellow ring around the entire pool above the waterline and with the rake I could scoop up a bunch of yellow stuff. Wow, what a year for pollen, I...
