Well I appreciate the input. I ran the pump 24/7 for 2 weeks on suoerchlorinate and I am back to super clear water with great test results! Thanks again

Thanks for the advice. Didnt want to hear that 4 letter word. We are not home enough to slam correctly. Any other way?

Hey guys. Had heavy rains a couple of weeks again and salt water pool has a green tint to it when usually it is Crystal clear for the most part. Not sure what's going on. Just vacuumed it and I saw some light brown flakes near the bottom I have been running pump and swg for a week straight...

I used a company out of wall township called YES contractors. They were a pain schedule wise but all pool guys are. If you have a lot of grading to do find a local guy that can do it

No worries and that was the language I was stating originally. I don't really expect them to cover the installation but I have gotten other companies to do things I would never have thought they would. Haha

It is a lot of rust indeed. More than should be there just by using an SWG. That is why I am going to call the installer. If they get paid to fix it by doughboy they may "look past" the SWG. We do live near the beach as well but that should not make it rust that fast either

Thanks Kim. I have used them and honestly was my last choice. I may call the installer Monday since it's only been less than 3 years. Have them look and see if they can get doughboy to warranty it some how. A guy can dream can't he? [emoji6]

I just removed some end caps to get some pics to show you guys what I'm dealing with From what I have read I can remove up to 3 top rails at a time to replace the stabilziers. Now the issue is some of the mounting screws are so rusted I cannot get a grip with a socket. I cannot use vice grips...

Doughboy will not cover anything that has a SWG hooked up to it. I already bought the rails Should I just remove the bond wire connections at the pool. The equipment will still be bonded

Thanks for the info. I'm pretty sure they just connected the bonding wore at two locations on the outside of 2 uprights. Either way I coated the heck out of the new rails and will be removing the top plates and with Wheeling them as well before paint. Ill try to remember to take some...

Thanks again for responding. Unfortunately we just work too much and had to have a company put ours in. They were a group of guys from Jamaica but you could tell they we're old pros. They said they traveled to the states during the srping and summer for the last 10 to 15 years just installing...

Sounds like we are going through the same process but our rails may be slightly different. I have 2 sizes. Thinner oned go on first and than thicker ones overlap those by about 6 inches which makes it harder to remove them. I am going to try to get out there again this weekend and try to...

So this is the 3rd season and my tip rails are rusted to the point they are dropping good sized rust into the pool. I bought new rails and hit them with 2 coats or Rust-Oleum. Issue I have is that doughboys have large and small stabilizers that overlap and not just in between the posts. Has...

I agree. We are very happy with this liner. I closed the pool yesterday and did notice a white spot near where the bottom of steps sit. I'm sure the pattern was just rubbed away so next year I may look for a mat for the ladder to sit on but also worried about algea growing under the mat. We...

I had no luck last year with my aquadoor. A couple of days after closing I realized there was water in my skimmer. Ended up just dropping the water level below this skimmer. I will try it again this year with some lube to see what happens

A couple more. 1 showing the liner tucked in

Only 2 on my phone. I'll try to get a couple more this weekend. I think this liner looks great

I used 3/4 river rock and finally expanded it out more and added rr ties so Everytime I weed whacked I was not shooting rocks all over!

We went with the 25 mil and there was no issues at all with the liner taking its form. The guys I had in my yard were very methodical. They were here for 3 days from start to finish. I think the spent 4 to 5 hours shaping and re shaping the sand to make sure it was perfect. I don't have a pic...

On my phone I cannot figure out how to change profile. I'm in Tom's River NJ. I think I will need to order new ones and cost them

I should clarify. I have resigned tip rails. These are long metal clips that hold the liner in place under the resin rails.

Hey guys. Not sure if I'm explaining this right. We are 2 years into our doughboy and love it. I have a saltwater system which I have barely need to touch to have my chemistry correct. Problem is and I knew this when they were installing is the metal rails. Does anyone know if I can buy these in...

Thanks Jim. I'll check them out Tom

Looks great. Where did you get your patio sails. I want to do something like that as we have a light colored stamped concrete and on really hot days it burns the feet! Thanks

I finally redid the stone around my AGP with 4 x 4 border. Needed about 1 more time of stone but well worth it. I can finally weed whack without throwing stones everywhere. Now I just need to get the grass going again and chop up the rest of the tree. We are leaving the large tree pieces as our...

I am in Tom's River and although I ultimately went with an above ground I was looking at ingrounds as well. We are beach people and mainly got it for the in laws to be able to have the kids have something to do during the week. Your in Jackson so the water table should not be an issue but you...

Thanks for the tips guys. Positive it was while the pump was running. I will double check my hand at the return. I only have one and I am pretty sure it was good. I will back wash again to see if that helps and report back.

Hey guys Heater was brand new last season and not used too much. The last couple time it ran I heard a clunking sound which after some research seem to be steam buildup so I shut it down until I could remedy the problem. Online research did not yield too many good articles on how to take apart...

Ill check to see if the size is losted on it when i get home. I used 1 1/2" pipe foe my plumving so i thinj just bought the fernco for that size

On my doughbot the skimmer and return are barbed and i am using a fernco with no issues. You can get them at any hardware or big bix hardware store. Sorry its blurry but yoi will see the connections.
