Hello forum, I just replaced my liner and have my pool fresh filled (from the hose) to appropriate level, started and primed my DE filter. I'm having a brain fart about what goes in first. I have enough salt on hand, got my CYA stabilizer, and have a few gallons of bleach on hand. SWG is...

Hello folks!!! I love this forum :) Although I'm fighting my significant other on solar heating... I'm open to hearing about equipment for the job. Hubby wants to heat the pool quick, fast, and in a hurry! He's like the pool to be at least 85 if not 88, and doesn't care what it costs... I do...

Hi all... I'm shopping for a solar cover and have conflicting info... so I'm taking a poll here to see what feedback / experience you can provide to narrow my options. I know there's many threads here on the topic, but they all seem to be a few years old. One never knows how much progress...

Hi all... I should remember this from a couple of years ago... but cannot seem to pinpoint the answer. Above ground salt water pool is green with algae. I need to slam, but have no CYA. Do I add stabilizer first? Here are my readings: CYA = 0 FC = 0 pH = 7.2 Cl = .5 Br = 1 TA = 70 Calcium =...

Apologies for my scattered conversation... I ask a lot of questions... and jump from topic to topic. Just overly hyper!! I'm having an issue with me D.E. filter not coating... I'm on my third attempt, and can't manage to fix it. I have so much DE kicked back into my pool... totally disgusted...

This part was connected to the top of my Hayward D.E. Filter model RG700... where the water goes out and returns to the pool. There seems to be a flap that has deteriorated and torn off which was causing problems with my pump fully priming and of course the return of water pressure back to the...

Hi all... I have a hayward power Flo matrix pump and regenx d.e. Filter RG700. I filled my 15 x 30 oval pool almost two weeks ago, percolated the d.e. Filter, ran the pump with no problems. After a day or so, I hooked up an Intex SWG and added 280 lbs. of salt. The pump had primed with no...

Hi... I just installed and filled my 15 x 30 oval pool, and noticed that the thru-wall outflow (hope I'm using the right lingo... The valve that returns the water back into the pool) has a slow leak outside the pool. Since I bought the pool used, I imagine the part is stressed from use (leak...
