    Pool cover issues

    the rope broke on one side of my auto cover. The pool company says I have to replace tracks pulleys and cover to fix this. Does that sound right? Is there a diy video on fixing the rope without replacing everything. It broke because water level was too low and I didn’t realize it.

    So I opened up my cover not realizing the water level was a little low. About 3/4 open, one side stopped working. It will open and close if I push and pull the non working sign but will not move by itself. Only one side is moving. Any ideas how to fix this. The line isn’t broken. The side...

    Mud in pool- no vacuum setup on pump

    Hook up a hose to the inlet in the skimmer and vacuum away. Amazon also sells Battery powered handheld vacuums as well. Not sure how effective they are.

    Large bubble on vinyl liner at the bottom of pool

    that's what the grease is for. Sounds like water to me albeit it's kind of odd that it's shaped like a basketball. How old is the liner?

    Anyone here have any experience with pool automation

    I would think all heaters have a pressure switch installed for safety.

    Pool light diffuser anyone?

    I looked at the selection of bulbs you guys carry... are there any that work by remote. Would rather not cycle through my on/off switch to find the perfect sequence. My light switch isn't near the pool, would be a lot of running around to make sure I have the color I want lol

    How to repair hole cut in concrete deck from return line fix?

    In my pool they cut the holes exactly the size of the skimmer covers. So I have extra skimmer covers over the return jets. You can find an appropriate plastic access panel, like they use in walls.

    Need help with a Vinyl Liner Repair

    I've always been under the assumption that liners last 6-12 years... so 9 years is a good run. Patch it for now, but you should be planning for a new liner after this season.

    Pool Overflowed

    you must be on a really high water table... unfortunately, the water around your pool saturated enough to push you liner out. I think the only remedy is to drain enough to contour the liner back into place. But with the water table as high as it is... that might just make things worse.
