This should work on your cleaner cord. What type cleaner do you have? If the plug will not pass through the 3/4 pipe you can split the pipe and get it around the cord. Be sure and use thin walled PVC. That is if your cord floats. Let me know if it works for you. You may even use 1/2 inch...

I have a Loop Loc SOLID safety cover. My friend had one with a mesh panel in the center and all the filth etc. would just go into your pool. My solid one keeps everything out and I open up my pool each year to nothing in it but a few worms and perfectly clear water. Anything mesh about a pool...

I use Boss Silicone 323 for everything I do to my pool that I want not to leak. This is a silicone that sets up and seals out water air and just about anything. Ideal for applying to the threads of threaded PVC fittings. Much better than Teflon tape. It is rather expensive and hard to find...

Here is a picture of my Polaris with my problem solver installed on the pressure line. If you want to know more about how to do this, let me know. I installed it day before yesterday and have not had my pressure line to knot up not even once. I am sure this would work on your pool that has a...

For 2.57 at Lowes and Home Depot you can buy the equipment to correct your pressure cleaner such as Polaris 380, 280, etc. from getting all knotted. I have made this after viewing the product "Cleaner Clips" which retail on line for 30.00 to 40.00 for 8 pcs. Equipment needed: 1 10 ft. section...

I installed it correctly. Water comes out all the time no matter if it is cycling or not. I have sent e-mail to the seller with my problem. It is a new one.

My backup valve was shooting water out of it all the time really badly. The cleaner would not move forward. I purchased a new backup valve and installed it in the float line. It is still shooting water out of the new backup valve but not as much. The cleaner does move forward. My question...

I had my pool remodeled and after the remodel which involved a lot of cement and cement based products, I have a white line all along where the water level is on the fiberglass tile. The walls are Polynesian Pool fiberglass and the tiles are manufactured (molded) into the walls which look like...

The only problem I had with them is they leaked. They worked perfectly until the leaking caused them not to display accurately and finally did not work. I hope with this one, I have solved the leaking. If not it will be returned to Home Depot and I will seek out something more reliable.

**** I had a new one that I had exchanged a faulty one for the 3rd time last fall. I did not put it back in my pool last year but I just installed it in my pool 2 days ago. What I did was I put a silicone lubricant all on the track below the O ring and coated the top also. I mean I really...

I have bought 3 of model Pool Hawk wireless pool thermomethers from Home Depot and all 3 of them get water inside of them and causes them to not work. I called AcuRite and they said they did not have any suggestions on how to keep the water out of the unit. I advised them that if they could...

I use the duck plugs (one-way pool valve). Works for me and this allows you to winterize your lines by yourself. You don't need someone working the compressor and another person plugging off the lines. definitely use a gizmo in the skimmer. I do not drain my water down at all but I live in...

I would never pay that price for something that you can use only for blowing out your pool lines. You can use a good shop vac. I have a DeWalt compressor that I use and it only cost me around 300.00 but it can be used with power tools and lots of things. I even use it to winterize my lawn...

I never blow out my main drain. Water will seek the lower level and you will not have a problem. My pool is 37 years old and never worried about the main drain. But I don't live in upper USA. But my lines would freeze if they are above ground and water got into them.

The reason the pool cover states to not drain your pool down too far is: The weight of water will stretch the cover down to meet your water level. this will cause strain on your pool cover causing it not to last as long. I have a solid loop-loc safety cover and I do not drain my pool. But...

After reviewing all these posts, I knew there was some really good reason that I never tried any other chemical other than the old trusted and tried Chlorine. I have had 35 years of beautiful water.

I am in the process of installing this (lpl-f2c-12-30-PSQ) color splash light fixture in my old SwimQuip niche. I have been searching for a fixture or bulb that would adapt to my nich since 2011. At that time J&J Electronics who manufacturers these did not have a ColorSplash that would fit...

Thanks to both of you for your answer. I will check my calcium hardness and correct the calcium if the test shows that I need it. I think I do because my bottom was just done 2 years ago and it is getting rough feeling, in fact my grandchildren scratched their toes on the bottom today.

My Pool Supply Store told me I needed to add 17 lbs of Calcium to my inground pool. My pool is fiberglass sides with concrete / plastered bottom. I asked her why and told her that I have never in 37 years added Calcium to my pool. She said that it would keep my vinyl liner from cracking. I...

Problem solved: I use a Hayward 4 port valve SP0735 to switch the flow between main and skimmer. This valve has a little shaft 0 ring. This O ring was bad and there was where the air was entering my system. I had a new one that I had ordered years ago as a replacement in case they ever quit...

Thanks

Thanks, I have a pool man coming Monday but I just wanted to kinda know what kind of a problem I may be looking at.

My pool has a lot of small air bubbled that come from the return jets. What is the most likely cause of this problem? Thank

Look at AO Smith diving board stands. Mine is exactly like this and you can use any 2 bolt diving board.

I had a leak in my in-ground pool who was due to a worn out hydrostatic valve. I replaced he valve and am refilling the pool with water. I cleaned the pool as good as I could but it is still a little dirty in spots (not bad at all). I would like to know if it would hurt after I fill up the...

Thanks for the picture. Your pool looks nice. The ladder also look really good as it blends in with your type of inpool steps. I have redone my pool and deck for the second time in 38 years. I have had the deck finished with Home Depot Behr concrete stain in the color Gathering Place which...

I found them: innovativepoolproducts.com They come in 5 colors white, grey, taupe, black, dark tan. I am going to order them and replace mine. I got a sample of the product last year but just forgot where I received them from. Tom

I want to replace my handrails and ladder with some that I have seen on line that are made of a plastic (PVC or composite material). These come in colors. This is the reason for replacing them so that I can get them in a color that blends in with my pool deck color. My equipment is bonded so...

I am having to have some repair work done on the coping and deck. This will include a complete restaining of the deck and coping. I am not going to fill the pool until I get through with that work because it will be easier for the man to do the concrete repair if he is standing on the bottom...
