i need a new cover, I read somewhere Sunbrella makes good covers. Can someone recommend a good online company to purchase from and do they come with a cover lifter? My lifter was damaged so I need a new one. Any help would be appreciated.

Did it sink to the bottom or float? Not good if it sunk……..also not a good idea keeping it plugged in all the time. Lightning can fry the components.

I contacted the manufacturer ( in China) and they never replied. Thanks for your reply

Oh wow that’s great news……!I just saw your reply. I’m def interested…….Thank you so much!

Well I purchased a new power supply, but it was an updated power supply that was supposed to be new and improved. I paid $300 plus shipping and received it a couple days ago. I plugged it in, powered up but the robot barely moved in the pool. The wheels spun, very slowly and it had a hard time...

Well it’s over 5 yrs old and stopped working. I took power supply apart and I’m thinking it could be the transformer because I’m not getting anything on the secondary. 120v in but no reading on secondary which should be 24 vac. A new power supply is over $800 and I’m not 100% sure that’s the...

Thanks people……yeah not a fun mistake. My wife says……..are you sure you know what you’re doing? :oops:

Thank you so much…….you guys are the best!

No I think I made the mistake of just adding the CYA (sock method) on day two when the water was still green. My thought process was to maintain the fc add the cya asap. Maybe my bad……now the slam still going on I need to keep fc really high. so I assume fc of 21 is not high enough for cya of...

The water is looking better but I had FC loss over night. I opened the pool 3 days ago with a cya of 40. I dissolved enough cya to bring up to 80 cya. Do I assume the cya level is 40 or 80? I know it takes time for the cya to record on test. My problem is I’m not sure what number to go by to...

What do you think of this one? Has freeze protection and auto shut off. https://www.harborfreight.com/plumbing/pumps/utility-pumps/submersible/14-hp-worry-free-automatic-submersible-utility-pump-56599.html

Can anyone recommend a pump for pool cover? Prefer the sump pump style so I can use it as a sump pump also. Some of these pumps shoot water out side, I would like one shoot water up and out. Sorry if I’m not being clear, not sure how else to phrase it. thank you so much…..

Thank you

My hot tub brand is not made anymore.Whats the best way, trying to be a bit frugal also, not too expensive, do I purchase a new cover? Buy online, at local spa shop etc…… I have no issues installing myself. Thanks

I have a hot tub we bought about 15 yrs ago but the past 5 yrs we haven’t used it mainly because the cover is shoot and needs to be replaced. Unfortunately we didn’t care for the cover over the years and it shows. Got busy with work over the years but now that I retired I have more time on my...

One of my anchors is stripped, not the bolt but the threads inside of the anchor. What the best way to handle this? I’d probably do a lot of damage to the concrete trying to remove the anchor by chipping it out. So should I fill it in with concrete and drill a new hole nearby? appreciate any help

https://intheswim.com/p/large-leaf-canister-pool-cleaning-attachment/58956.html I assume it’s for hooking up your vacuum ? Goes into skimmer? I have a robot but sometimes it needs a little help with leaves. Don’t know why but my oak tree dropping leaves since late July . also does this work...

Yeah that’s the original motor…….I just stole the switch

Lol holy cow you buy a two speed motor and pay separate for the switch. Well Im not surprised, it’s the world we live in today. Lol…….I’ll use the old one

Yes I did buy new gasket kit……..I just received the pool pump today. Here’s a pic of name plate. My question is my other motor was two speed also but this motor has no external hi/ lo switch. Says two speed……how do you go from Hi to Low?

Also thank you for the heads up on that company being a scam!

Do you recommend replacing gasket kit? I have salt water pool. Is this what I need? https://www.inyopools.com/Products/00101352069706.htm#qa

Also what is meant by variable speed? Is it a big energy saver?

Ok I have to assume the motor is dying or dead. I noticed it’s cheaper to just replace the motor assembly. What I have now is a 2 speed (high/low) 220v 1 hp 1 ph motor part number 193508. wondering if I should replace with same motor? If so anyone know where I can find best price? Also how...

I have a 2 speed pool pump. Leave it on low 24/7. We got over 4” of rain last night and woke up to water above the skimmer and the main drain was leaking years ago so I plugged them. When we woke up the pump was not working and the breaker was tripped. I pumped water out of pool with a separate...

Ok ……..wow 15% alright. And I’ll turn off swg for a day or two

Oh to answer bonsey question……my cya is 75 but I’m not slamming.
