Hey I have a big pool like that. I believe it’s a 16x32 and filled with algae. I have a liner that slipped off the track. Should I drain it in order to fix the liner? And if so what can I clean the liner with without tearing it?

@wendyspurling494 3 года назад

I have a 30X44 foot pool. It’s drained we are getting ready to repaint it but first have a crack repair to contend with. I’m not sure when to remove the plugs in my two main drains and after removing them, do I buy new plugs to replace them? I’m concerned about taking those apart. I have ground water currently coming up-maybe an inch or so every week. I live in Maine.

Yes, you can set the filter valve to waste and use the main drain and pump. Make sure you close the skimmer line so the pump doesn't draw in air.

You should install a hydrostatic relief valve in the main drain ( the hole you pulled the plug out). If there was ground water then that valve will open. If you did not have that then the shell of the pool will pop out.

In my city we drained into the main outlet pipe from the house to the sewer. There's an access portal by the sidewalk in the front yard. Only issue w that is not drain it too quick or you can back up into the house plumbing. Way to do that is feather out the hose have it go uphill before going down into the outlet pipe.

@Esther-ps3vx 4 года назад

I would suggest you talk to your local pool store if you need to drain the pool after they test the water. I drain my pool myself and it is an inground pool and the process for me takes about 2 days as my pool is not that big. This video is quite helpful, the best I have seen.

@chuckschillingvideos 4 года назад

Cleaning time is going to depend upon how badly the algae has etched itself into the plaster/gunite surface. If you have a vinyl liner, it will go a lot quicker. As for the fill time, that's gonna depend on your local water pressure. Where I live, it takes two days to fill my 15,000 gallon pool using two garden hoses. Yeah, that's painfully slow.

@tonyadams7444 Год назад

I plan on doing this due to high CYA and now yellow and green algae. I will use a pump sprayer. Should I use straight chlorine or dilute it to some ratio? Thanks

@mbyrd6635 Месяц назад

What did you end up doing with the chlorine? sprayer, diluted? I too have to drain for CYA but I have a little green on some walls that keeps coming back.

@Tony-ck1ds Месяц назад

I didn’t dilute the chlorine. As the video shows, this guy just pours it from the edge. I used the pump sprayer to get even coverage as I overlapped each spray as well as to get into, and under, the 4 ladder footsteps. Let it all sit and soak-in for 30mins, then lightly power washed.

@mattski1979 2 года назад

After the 30 minutes of wall chlorine and the pool surfaces with fresh water do you pump that stuff out with the sump or leave it for some reason?

@JoshMG Год назад

Sump can only drain so much… filling the pool will dilute what little is left in there- much below the amount that will be needed to balance water after filling.

@franklobo2579 Год назад

Could you poke like 3 or 4 small holes in the cap of the chlorine bottle to create a spray?

@Inyopools Год назад

I'd recommend a chemical sprayer so that you get an even spray. Poking holes in the top might not provide even distribution.

Hi pls i want to know how to drain with garden pipe

@Inyopools 4 года назад

You can drain an above ground pool by using a garden hose as a siphon or if the inground pool is on a hill. Water would have to be sucked into the hose and once that happens, the water will continue to drain through the hose by itself. A pump will be required if the pool water is below the level of where you are draining.

@Headovermeals_angie Год назад

Hello! Do you have to remove the plug from the bottom or is it okay to shovel everything out and not touch the plug at all

@JoshMG Год назад

It’s good to open it in the event the water tables are up, it’s a release valve so instead of the pressure pushing your pool shell up- the pressure will escape through the release valve

@@Inyopools How do you know which plug wrench you need for your pool? The reason I ask is that there is the cylindrical plug (circular) and the plug like the one you show that's a square. I don't want to go draining the pool, get to opening the filter at the bottom and find out I have the wrong tool. Then I have to wait several days to order that tool. I do have a Hayward Control valve much like the Hayward SP0715XR50 Pro Series Vari-Flo Control Valve. I have to be careful as I am in Orlando and the water tale can affect it and push the pool out of the ground if I don't do this right.

If the water has high cyanuric acid should I drain the pool water on the DEEP or SHALLOW part of the pool? (@2:30.) I suppose that most chemicals, including cyanuric acid, would accumulate & gather on the deep end of the pool.

@chuckschillingvideos 4 года назад

No, these chemicals are dissolved and/or suspended in the pool water and do not deposit on the pool bottom.You may see calcium scale on high flow plastic or metal surfaces such as inside pump housings but you will never see them as loose deposits on the pool bottom.

A chlorine wash is best used for algae infestations. If there are stains that won't shift the usual way, a chlorine wash should do the trick. Muriatic acid is a harsher chemical for deep cleaning mineral and organic stains. When used on plaster pools, Muriatic acid removes a plaster layer, revealing a fresh layer of plaster underneath.

@chuckschillingvideos 4 года назад

Acid will also help "brighten" plaster walls and help eliminate stained areas in the plaster. Keep in mind that the acid will remove a certain thickness of plaster each time an acid wash is performed, so you don't want to do an acid wash without a good reason. Chlorine (bleach) washing has no such effect on the plaster or concrete finish.
