Hello all! I have had this pool for 10 years now. This is the first time I have opened the pool w/ the new pump and cartridge filter. I am running the pump at a constant 3150 RPM. The flow rate says ~80 GPM Depending on how many leaves have fallen into the pool/skimmer basket. The PSI on the...

Title says it all. I ordered the VSF 011056 back in march from Doheny's but they keep bumping the ship date every week or so. Currently, it moved from today (05.13.2022) to 05.25.2022. This is the 6th time they have shifted the ship date. I have found a single VSF locally for $2.1k which is...

My old single-speed pump and 36 Sq Ft Nautilus NS DE Filter finally died last season. It is time to get new stuff starting this season. My pool specs are close to the ones from this thread: https://www.troublefreepool.com/threads/new-filter-pump-20x40-in-ground-37-000-gallons.179050/ But that...

My pool pump died right before I added the polyquat 60. I just need to add that and blow out the lines to close the pool. The water is clear and was at SLAM levels. I would rather not buy a pump right now, the last one I bought in 2017 was $350 the same one now is $700. The front seal cracked...

I am looking to purchase a pool heater for the upcoming season. There is no natural gas lines available where I live so it would have to be propane. The local shop recommended a MasterTemp 300 (personally from what I have read this is too low) So I bumped that up to a MasterTemp400. They ball...

Well first opening went ok as far as equipment. Water was green and algea everywhere. So time to slam. I put what should have been enough bleach in to get to at least 10ppm (0 CYA right now) but the test is only showing 7.5ppm. Here are my readings: FC: 2 (it clears right away then 10s later...

Hey all love the site! Got my kit tf100 and took my first set of readings. History - last summer was our first summer with the pool and it was a mess. From cleaning issues to holes in the DE filter grids to spending 2k$ plus on chemicals. We were supposedly in a "chlorine demand" and only...
