So I went from Chlorine to Bromine, did not like the Bromine so drained the hot tub, refilled and got a nasty smell. Drained again and still bad smell. Used test strips and color is off the charts, no idea what the numbers are. Used my pool kit and tested the PH and it is bright yellow. So is...

So how do you know when it is time for a new liner. We bought ours with the pool in 2012. It starting to get rough along the water line and yesterday I noticed there are some wrinkles around the skimmer. Don't want to have to install a new one in the middle of summer so would like to start...

What are the pros and cons of the In Line Chlorinator for the tabs? Thinking about adding one this year.

I have a 1.5 HP Waterway 2 speed pump with a Black Diamond Cartridge Filter. Since I opened this year on my 28ft Above Ground Pool I have been fighting it. Finally got it somewhat cleared up but still a little cloudy. I tried vacuuming what is left in the bottom but it just goes by my filter...

I started a new thread for your post. It is confusing to everyone when two posters are asking question within the same thread (Hi-jacking). Plus, posting your question in a new Thread is more likely to get responses. --duraleigh, TFP Moderator I just got my Taylor T-2006 and was trying the...

Should you leave your pump running 24/7 or not. I have heard both to keep it running and some keep it on a timer?
