Hi, I know that the AXV414P (rubber) shoes are specified for concrete pools, but it seems like they work just fine in my fiberglass pool. I was wondering if they would damage the fiberglass pool though? The AXV413P (cork) shoes are specified for fiberglass, but they cost 3-4x as much, plus...

Hi, I have a heliocol solar pool heater. There's always a slow dribble of water from the vacuum relief valve (HC-121) when the system is fully pressurized (meaning there are no air bubbles and no sucking sound coming from the valve). The little white ball inside the valve doesn't seem to seal...

Hi, Sorry if this has been asked before, I'm new to this forum. I have a solar pool heater with what appears to be the standard bypass/diverter valve and isolation valves (in and out). The previous owner of the house did not provide me with the owner's manual for the heater. I was wondering...
