    Hoses in Permanent Curve

    I just ordered new hoses because I noticed my Pentair Rebel was only staying on one side of the pool, the real deep end. No issues with the rover itself, but after examining everything I noticed a lot of the hoses are in a permanent type of curve. They don't straighten out too good, even...

    Pool Pump Possibly Dead?

    I happened to go by the backyard earlier and noticed that all of the pool equipment was off. I went to the main breaker box and noticed the pool equipment pool breaker was flipped. I flipped it back on, everything went back on except for the pump. The display is off - a Pentair Intelliflo VS...

    Small Orange Marks After Replaster

    Had the entire pool redone this year. It was replastered with new blue quartz. The pool is around 30 years old. I'm not sure if it was ever replastered. Seemed like the old owners were "painting" the pool every few years. It's a little over 30 days since the replaster and several orange marks...

    New Plaster Installed, Small Imperfections

    My pool project is finally complete. The big company in town started back in January and finished a few days ago. The nutty weather in Las Vegas the last few months created numerous delays. The plaster was the final piece of the puzzle. They redid the entire deck, installed brand new tile...

    PVC Pipe - Heat Bending Question

    I had my pool skimmer replaced earlier today as part of my ongoing redesign and while they were replumbing that area, I saw something that I had never seen before. During the breaking of the concrete, a pool pipe in the area was broken. I noticed the broken pool pipe was not a straight shot...

    Pool Remodel Started, Plaster Removal Question

    My pool remodel started this week. They came today with a crew to chip and remove the old plaster. They were here from 7AM-3PM. They cleaned up pretty good, with no dust anywhere and had everything covered with plastic (like the whole side of the house).. My only complaint with them, is they...

    Does Anyone Have a Gate/Fence Around Their Pool?

    My pool is in the process of being remodeled and re-plastered. I live on a gated block and my backyard has security doors on both entry points of the property (with double deadbolts, so no handles to open doors). Only eight homes within the gated block and only one other home has small kids...

    Draining Pool To Sewer Cleanout

    Has anyone here drained a pool to a sewer cleanout? My pool is being remodeled and re-plastered at the end of the month. In Las Vegas, the law is to drain out a pool to the sewer's cleanout. My only concern is the possibility of the house being flooded if water starts coming up the other way...

    Damp Soil Near Pool Equipment

    There is damp soil near my pool equipment, on the left side of my large gas pool heater (damp soil on the left of the heater, pool pump and filters on the right side of the heater). The soil is not what I would call wet, but certainly call damp. You can't grab a handfull and squeeze any water...

    Question Regarding The Pentair Rebel

    Have anyone else had issues with this cleaner? I had the Pentair Warrior for like 3 years and it just stopped working. I purchased the Pentair Rebel like two weeks ago. It was working fine for like a week and a half, really moving and cleaning fast - and now it barely moves if at all. The...

    Leak or Evaporation?

    I live in Las Vegas, which is obviously hot. It's been in the mid-high 80s this week. Long story short, I noticed my water meter was having a very, very slow spin at all hours of the day. I finally tracked it down to the pool's auto-fill (Korky auto-fill). It was stuck I gather and seeping out...
