The poles on one side of our metal frame pool is sinking into the ground. We have a soft yard after it rains and that is when we notice the sinking. We have attempted fixing it several times but the rain always causes sinking. Are we right in thinking the yard just won't support a pool? Is there...

I have an Intex 1000gph filter pump. It used to work wonderfully. Lately it won't turn on. I can't get all the water out of the pump so it can turn on. When I turn the top valve I hear release but water never comes out of the top anymore. The water will come out of the outlet hose when I hold...

I'm looking at getting the tf100 kit, among others, but I'm not understanding why it comes with an OTO test and FAS/DPD if so many people say they don't use the OTO. Am I missing something?

We went to a pool party yesterday and I noticed within twenty minutes my hands and feet were pruney. What's odd to me is that we can be in our pool over an hour before that happens. I hope thats a good thing.

We finally have the big pool almost full. We have about a foot left before we can start the pump. With the smaller pool, I'm sure I could've had a better order to putting in the chemicals. So which levels need tackled first? Does it matter on the state of the pool or is it the same every time...

The stores around me are putting all pool stuff on clearance and now are all out of filters. I'm looking at an Orca filter now. Any recommendations?

Our pools are clear of tree . We live on a dirt road and that's really all that needs vacuumed from the pool unless we mow. I don't have a store nearby to look at vacuums in person. The only one any of the dollar stores around here carry is the hth water hose vacuum with a net. I don't think...

Hi everyone! I have two AG pools right now thanks to a friend giving us a bigger one. We'll be downsizing to just the big one in two weeks. We don't have any specific pool stores closer than 100 miles. We just have Walmart to work with. I look forward to learning even more from you guys.
