    Hayward Power Flo LX Pump Mount (SP1515)

    My pump is only a few years old. The mounting bracket on the bottom of the pump rusted away and I cannot secure it to the base anymore. The pump runs as strong as it did on day 1. There has to be a way to secure it somehow. Anyone have any ideas? I cant be the first person this has happened to!

    21x54 Round Pool Liner

    I'm striking out everywhere I look for a 21x54 round pool beaded liner. Pool stores around me cant find any and I need to replace mine. Anyone have any suggestions where to find one?

    Possible Mustard Algae

    A little history first - I made a huge mistake when I opened this season. I vacuumed and backwashed many times over the first couple days instead of just vacumming to waste. I have absolutely no idea what I was thinking. Stupid. For the last couple weeks I've been having what looks like very...

    Well, I screwed up...

    But nothing that cant be fixed! New pool owner, installed in November and took the cover off last weekend. I closed it pretty well, as the water was only a bit cloudy and a slight green tint. Got the FC up and cleared the pool, but the rain and snow over the winter lowered the CYA to under...

    I'm in need of some help...

    I just had a 21' round above ground pool put up and filled. The power is not run yet, so there is no circulation. I followed the Pool Math calculation and added 1 gallon of bleach and used the brush to stir the water around for about a half hour and this was just before dark. The next day, I...

    New pool filling. Now what?

    The pool build is done and it's currently filling with water. I have to throw the cover on for the winter and I know the water has to be treated, but what chemicals and target levels? The SWCG wont be hooked up until spring but I do have the salt in the shed already. I've read Pool School...

    Filter and Pump Locations

    I will be having a 21' round pool installed within the next month. One detail I'm trying to figure out is where to put the filter and the pump. I'm building a free standing deck on one side, which is between the house and the pool. On the left and rear there will be 6 feet between the pool and...

    What size pump?

    We're going to be buying a pool at the end of the season. I've been quoted a package for an 18' round Aqua Leader Blues pool. The package includes a 1.5 HP Hayward. This is our first pool, and judging by what I've read on this forum and other places, this seems to be too big. Am I correct...
