    anchor sockets

    Well I thought I had everything covered until I thought of my stair hand railing. I am having a new pool deck/patio put in and remembered I have 2 anchor sockets to put back in the new concrete, can I use the old ones after I clean the old concrete off of them or should I just bite the bullet...

    Re-doing plumbing 1.5" to 2" Reducers vs changing fittings

    Re: Re-doing plumbing 1.5" to 2" Reducers vs changing fittin I feel for ya brother and it is probably absolutely silly to worry about. But when I held up that 2" union up to that 2" - 1.5" reducer I just cringed and said screw it and started shopping for the 2" versions. Like you I had a brand...

    Re-doing plumbing 1.5" to 2" Reducers vs changing fittings

    Re: Difference between pump pipe size 2" and port size 1.5" I just did the same exact thing when moving my equipment pad 24' further, everything went from 1.5" poly to 2" sch 40 and when I got to the pad I decided "if your gonna be a bear, be a grizzly" so I replaced the multiport with the 2"...

    Liquid filled pressure gauge! Inexpensive!!!! 8.19 (9/12/13)

    Re: Liquid filled pressure gauge! Inexpensive!!!! 8.19 (3/26 Because of the way my new multiport is, a backmount would make it stand upright, as where now I had to put a brass 90 on there in order to accomplish this. I cant imagine it would affect anything, no matter which way it was...

    pump timers

    Hi guys, yet another newbie question. I am shopping and looking for a pump timer because of my research on here and learning that I don't have to run my pump 24/7 (which is what I did last year). What I don't get or see is that they don't seem to have an on/off switch override, so if I am...

    How to fix a cracked pump housing

    What model housing do you have? I just ordered a new one because I'm going to 2" which will leave me with my old one spx 1600aa. If your repair doesn't work I'll be more than happy to work with you if you need it before it goes to the land of ebay

    Pool Decking Opinions please!

    Find a great decorative concrete guy and let his imagination run wild. I am having 900 sq ft of stamped and stained concrete with a border done for about $8.25 a sq ft.

    20 yr old pool, brand new pool deck / patio.

    20 yr old pool, brand new pool deck / patio.

    Can someone please give me their opinion on the cleaner port in the side of my pool, I really don't know which I would benefit from most, making it a suction side port or a pressure side (without adding a booster pump right now)

    Bleach cost and bleach quantity?

    Thank you kindly for all of your advice. Like I said, I feel like I did pretty well last year I only had one cloudy episode the morning of a huge party (my chlorine tablet feeder lost pressure or something, no water). But I did run to the pool store a lot (it is close though) but this year with...
