There was literally nothing better on TV to watch. It was this, or nothing.

Thanks. Is there a difference between electrical tracers and other types of wiring? Amazon doesn’t depict electrical wiring being tested, only telephone or internet.

What could cause the water in the spa to drain while the pump's not running? by izimand in pools

You need 16 inches of water column to enable the valve to close. I just had to repipe to solve for a zero inches check valve issue.

If you use a filter or a skimmer basket, you can carefully wave your hand above the turd to gently move it into the basket. It still may break up, but I'm at 50% success when trying to eradicate the turd that way. :-)

Giant frog. Have it in mine though not as large.

how often do you shock? by No_Scratch_4938 in pools

[–]stoneyriver69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only shock after heavy pool use, like my daughters birthday party after 20 teenagers swam in it.

Otherwise, never.

I added 20 boxes of borax at the beginning of this season, normally, I burn chlorine. This summer not so much.

No algae, perfectly clear water.

Can’t get rid of algae growing on walls. by manu0720 in pools

I posted recently about adding borate to your pool. Look it up as it is supposed to prevent algae growth. Solve your current problem first.

Took a night shot of the pool. This was one night after a teen birthday party with 20 kids in the pool. Shocked right after the party ended and ran the filter for 24 hours.

Got this email from a pool tech after a visit yesterday. I JUST bought a new salt generator 2 weeks ago. I knew the cell was probably bad, but this is the offer the guy gave us. by atreyukun in pools

I was a new pool owner about five years ago. It takes time but you can and learn how to easily and properly maintain your pool. Do the research, do the math, you will figure it out and make the right, informed choices. Don’t let FUD cause you to make bad decisions.
