Hello from Fort Worth

[txwhitacre]

I'm glad I found this forum. I am a casualty for the Texas hard freeze and 30 hours of no power or water. I have been lurking on the treads. I have some repairs to do, cracked valves, SWG, and main assist pump. The lid on my main pump blew off and I suspect the main pumps internals are damage. I have a cartridge filter and expect the filters are crushed and the manifold on top. So lots of things to consider.

Thanks for being here.

Welcome to the forum!
Start a thread in the appropriate sub forum on any questions around your repairs.
I suggest you read ABC's of Pool Water Chemistry.

Hello, I am in North Texas and am in the same situation. Power off for 24 hours. I am replacing my old pump with new intelliflo. Hope it works. I do all of pump maintenance myself. Not really that hard. Just read about new electronics with old mechanical timer . Probably going to get electrician to wire that properly. Replacing DE filters , I’m pretty sure they were ruined with the freezing to. Good luck.
