    Fibre Pool and high ph cause osmosis and stain?

    I did had a good laugh when I read that. I had a pool since I was 14 years old. Never saw the pool green except on opening day. My dad was just following pool guy advice but never had problem having it turn green because of rain. My last pool, an above ground one, had a problem with algea. Was...

    Fibre Pool and high ph cause osmosis and stain?

    Yeah, I know I must be careful about all those claims hence why I took the question here. There was already so much questionnable information like "it's normal for the pool to turn green after a rain".

    Pump leaking from unknown

    Hello everyone, I walked up to my pump yesterday to find out water around it. I've checked all surrounding pipe with a paper towel and none wet it, so it's not coming from there. The pump is about 3 years old. Thank you!

    Fibre Pool and high ph cause osmosis and stain?

    Hello everyone, I adopt the TFP way this year and my water is as clean as ever. I'm into a facebook group of people owning fibre pool. Lots of them have the same brand as me (fibro) and after 2-3 years, stain started to appear and some even have osmosis problem. For the stain, a lot of people...

    Unsure about my salt testing

    only reason I slammed a second time was because I forgot I had remove all CH generation (removed tab and stopped CWG) which dropped me at 0 CH for some days. Didn't wanted to take any chance, I slammed back

    Unsure about my salt testing

    yeah, once I get my CYA level proper, I'm off to doing that. But since I always have lot's of tree stuff in my pool, it will never be that stable. I got a lots of big trees and cedar hedge. Everyday is a full pool cleanup because of that. I can't wait to have my robot. As for my vial, I flush...

    Water leak at pump

    So I unscrewed the adapter, removed all of the teflon tape and the little silicon they put. I've put new silicon tape, screwed it so about 3 turn of thread show, still leak. I screwed it more, still leak.... I'm starting to think they knew about this and the original stuff was maybe glue. It's...

    Unsure about my salt testing

    Normally, it's at 30% or below. The pool normally doesn't run 24/7 except at opening season. Once it's stabilise, I run it during the day from 9am to 9pm. It's also open from april to october (at best). Right now, the water is at 59F. I remember having someone told me under 60-70F, it's not...

    Unsure about my salt testing

It now says it's 2600 which is below it'S 2700 threshold. I'll add some salt after the repair to see if it get...

    Unsure about my salt testing

    a good 4 hours :( Ok, so since cell says 2700 and store meters 3200, should be ok. Pool maker says to only check the aquarite reader (well, maybe they want to sell new cells faster). I never cleaned the cells, wonder if that's require? I did flush it with fresh water at the beginning of the...

    Water leak at pump

    Hello everyone, I found out I have a small leak on the tube going upward from my pomp to my filter. I try putting it tighter but it didn't help. Looking at the installation, it seems there's some kind of silicone that was applied at the installation. How do I fix this? Thank you!
