We had our pump replaced last week and after it was turned back on the intellichlor Ic40 now continues to blow a fuse and will not work. Could this be related to how the pump was hooked up? I have called the pool store that did it and they say it's not related, but it did not start doing this...

Last Wednesday overnight we assume some kind of animal got into our pool and tore the liner trying to get out. We are waiting on quotes from companies to replace the liner. I know this is the busy season for every pool builder so I'm wondering if it would be possible for us to patch it until a...

Our pool was finished last September, we already have a fairly large hole that formed under the floor of our shallow end. It's about 8" long and about 4" wide. There's also a smaller one starting near the steps in the shallow. What would cause these holes to form? We have a vinyl liner pool, is...

I have two questions, can anyone recommend another company besides american leak detection? I know I have a leak in my pool, but they can not find it. The guy has swam my pool twice and he says it's leaking also but he just can't find where. My builder installed a sump pump after us having...

I'm still having trouble getting everything figured out with my pool builder. We have had a leak that I think is in the lines and he is saying it can't be because the pressure would drop immediately after pressure testing. This is how they tested, every return in my pool was plugged with pvc and...

My skimmers don't seem to create much of a suction, everything just floats on top of the water in the skimmer and not sucked down in the basket. I turned my valve today to add water into my pool and I noticed that everything in my skimmer was pushed back out into my pool. Should water be able to...

What would cause bursts of bubbles to come out of one of my returns? I have 3 returns but it only comes out of one. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

I've had issues with my pool since it was installed. One thing was there was a leak somewhere and it was staying wet around the pool. We found there was a piece of plastic left under the liner that made a hole in it. He drained my pool and patches it from underneath the liner. We have had a very...

We had a very hard rain night before last. When I came outside yesterday I found my pool cloudy and full of sand and dirt. It had been so clear before that. The water ran from the ground over my cement into the pool. My builder told me to just let the pump and dolphin do its job. I've ran the...

Our flow light on the intellichlor is red. It did this before, and I asked my pool builder about it, he said I needed my pump running at a higher speed, it has ran since September (when pool was installed) at this same speed and has been fine until now, so I turned it up to a higher speed, the...

Those of you that build pools, can you give me insight as to how it's determined how much the pool is built up? We are still having issues and I'm not sure if my pool was just built wrong or what, and I feel like I can't believe anything my pool builder tells me anymore. We live in southwest...

Our pool was finished at the end of September. We were only able to use it for about a month before it got too cold. We have had so many problems. There was a piece of plastic that was not seen on the floor of the deep end that ended up making a hole in the liner. It stayed wet around the pool...

My pool is only a little over a week old. Friday made one week that it was filled up. I tested my water this morning and here are my results: With the daily test kit (blue box) I had: Chlorine 5 Br 10 PH 8.2 Then I did the other tests: FC 3.5 CC .5 TC 4 TA 150 (this has came down on it's own...

My pool was just finished on Friday....So theres so much that i dont know yet! I upgraded my pump, to the intelliflo variable speed, based on recommendations from my builder. He still hasn't came back and given me the orientation, so my pump has been set on speed 3 running continuously all this...

We are having our liner installed tomorrow and will begin filling up the pool. The pool builder will get it all up and running and started for us. I have read through this site multiple times and ordered the test kit. I'm wondering should I keep the stuff that's recommended to treat the pool on...

We are in the process of having our pool installed. It's been a very slow, long process but are slowly nearing the end. Just waiting on the liner to come in now. It's a custom vinyl pool. We added a bench in the deep end and have wide steps across part of the shallow end. It's a lagoon shape...

We are in the process of having our pool installed. We are doing a 18x36 custom liner pool. We added a seat in the deep end, what is the normal depth of the seat from the water line? I sat on mine yesterday and it seems like it will hit me about at my shoulders when sitting on the seat. I was...
