I live in Northern California and looking to rebuild/resurface an old in ground pool. The surface is currently white plaster and we're considering a colored Pebble Tek. I need information from someone other than the salesman. Does Pebble Tek last longer? If we get colored Pebble Tek, can we...

Hello, I have an Intermatic pump timer for my pool. I'm guessing the whole pool and pump system is over 20 years old. The timer stopped moving...so its not activating the pump anymore. There are actually two timers...one for the main and one for a booster pump. The circuit breakers are fine...

My pool pump motor is LOUD. It's old (I assume from the 80's) and I've had it rebuilt once...three years ago (I've lived here for eight years). It's a Challenger/Pac-Fab pool pump (1.5 hp). I think its time for a replacement...though not yet sure I can afford it. I've talked with a trusted...

I was surfing the net and found the following: Floatron Anyone seen one...used one...know someone who has/had one?

Hi, I have a Polaris 380 that is not working. I recently purchased it, and I might be able to return it, but I figure I "broke" it...so I have to fix it. It ran fine at first. My pool was full of debris and the mesh filter clumped up quickly. I remember a pool guy telling me a few years ago...

Greetings! My wife and I bought our home three years ago, and it came with a pool. It is our first, and we were happy to get it. It's a nice pool...better when it was new I'm sure. Based on the design, we think it was built in the 70's and the everything about the pool appears to be well...
