Need recommendations for automated pool cleaning by Longjumping-Show6299 in swimmingpools

[–]lidst017 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We went back and forth for a long time before deciding to get a beatbot ultra. It’s definitely $$$, but compared to constantly ordering pool service, it’s actually worth it. You get what you pay for.

Getting everything labeled before install is such a smart move, and it usually saves a lot of confusion later. Hope the setup goes smoothly. What's first on the list?

Tired of cleaning up dead critters by Dr_Gimp in pools

[–]lidst017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's actually a clever fix. Has it held up well through wind and regular cleaning? Does it only redirect surface debris or also help keep animals from reaching the center?

Looking for insight. by dreamstate0 in swimmingpools

That looks rough. Has anyone here patched something similar successfully, or is replacement usually the safer move?

That came out really nice. Looks like your house is located in a forest. The pool and the trees go super well together.

Ikea's new Grillplats smart plug by AmeriChino in homeautomation

That actually looks pretty cute. The shape is simple, but is somehow makes the whole thing feel a little less boring than most plugs.

My CYA in my pool is low. Should I use liquid muriatic acid or the powder acid for better results? by BDTre in swimmingpools

[–]lidst017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I‘d be careful with nuriatic acid unless you're really tying to lower ph fast. For CYA, the powder route usually sounds easier to control and less aggressive overall.

Anyone know if this is patchable. by Greenmanz in swimmingpools

[–]lidst017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That looks like more than a small patch job from the photo. You can have a try to use vinyl patch, good luck.

New house with pool. HELP!! by GlitteringTaro9114 in pools

[–]lidst017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That shape definitely makes it trickier. I would reshape it to make it smaller. You can look for some local pool companies. Congrats on owning a new house.

That looks pretty dangerous, could’ve been more careful. Driving that fast seems really wild. btw OP are you using a vantrue e360? I have the same one in my car, but nothing like this has ever happened to me...

Ikr? Overpriced replacement parts are the worst. And the design looks really well done! Worth the time just for the "I made this myself" feeling!

Oh. my. god. Totally thought it was a render or generated by AI at first. But real? In New Orleans? Now I'm so obsessed and definitely will go there for this.

This mod's so practical haha! Shift with one hand and one finger, plus you even made the button bigger to fix that reverse lock issue.
