    Need a new Chlorinator

    Yea it is tough with getting home at 10pm everynight. Sometimes I get help during the day though so it is somewhat monitored. Searching around for that Hasa it seems it is not really sold many places I think I found one that was actually carrying it.

    Need a new Chlorinator

    Although I have had this pool for around 3yrs now it is definitely a hassle to take care of. It is around a 40,000 gallon pool so I was looking at options where I only have to monitor it every week or so instead of a few days like it is right now. I was looking up that Hasa system, and it...

    Need a new Chlorinator

    Are these not really used much anymore? When looking around for them it seems there is really only that pentair one and hayward. Plus both look like older models. Just surprises me when I thought there would be more new stuff out there.

    Need a new Chlorinator

    Thank you for that I looked it up and actually figured out my question from before. I presume inline is where the actually pool piping runs through it. as opposed to offline where there are just two wires that connect into the piping.

    Need a new Chlorinator

    Hey guys, I apologize if this is in the wrong spot but I was not sure where to put this. I currently have a hayward chlorinator on my pool but it has been more and more troublesome with leaks. I wanted to switch over to a salt water setup but money is just not allowing it right now. Since my...

    Heater Trouble

    Just to update a bit, it seems that you were right on those flaps blocking the water flow, although it did not seem like anything was really blocking them, i tried to check real well but it was dark out. There were moments where id push down smooth but occasionally it got stuck. I did figure...

    Heater Trouble

    Well the strange thing is, my pool has some letro autofill thing built into it. And for some reason this season it actually puts to much water in the pool, because it is not low at all on the sides so anymore it would be like at the bottom of the cement molding around the top. I thought about...

    nah i didnt really get all that many chemicals, the vitamin c did not get that much off, i had to really scrub hard with it and it kinda dimmed the stain. I only bought the things i listed and to me thats the most normal stuff, just the acide to lean, metal stuff, stuff to stop algae growth...

    new here and well pools as well

    so when i scrubbed a few of those vitamin c tablets on the stains it seemed to partly take them off. Went out and bought all the goods (acid, metal sequesterant, algeaside). The thing is it says to lower the chlorine in the pool, now the sticky here says to wait it out a few days, but on...

    new here and well pools as well

    yea this pool really pisses me off but it really intrigues the heck out of me to be honest. Because it seems the more i read around, that you can bring the water to be tested(which we did) and they told use it had no copper, not sure if they scanned for iron. But if the iron and what not...
