Can anyone make water spiral threw an automatic swimming pool cleaner's pipes?
Q. My question is can you make the water in your automatic swimming pool cleaner's pipes spiral. Speeding up water flow, greater suction power, faster automatic swimming pool cleaner, a turning force is created on the swimming pool pipes. The automatic swimming pool cleaner will be able to turn itself out of tight spots.

A. Try a Hayward Navigator, it turns itself out of steps and ledges and spends more time cleaning the pool! You're welcome!!

Does my pool have a leak or is it just water evaporation?
Q. I've noticed here the past couple weeks that my pool has lost water, could it be a leak or just evaporation? Can having my pool cover on cause it to evaporate more? My pool is not on an entirely level place either. It's a 16 foot easy set pool btw. Also, how much water should I expect to lose on a weekly basis to evaporation? Location: Indiana Average temperature: (air) 85-90? It's a 16 foot pool. I'm not sure about how much water it loses on a weekly basis.

A. Normal evaporation is 1/8" in winter and close to 1/4" in summer, per day. Temperature, humidity and wind all bear on evaparation rates and a cover at first seems to be an ideal solution unless you have children and pets, even neighbors pets and any wildlife looking for a drink of water. Unsecured covers will envelope anything that falls on the cover. Rocks, block and bricks do not secure a plastic cover. Fully secured covers cost a lot of money but offer peace of mind. Covers also obscure your view of the water and is vary important in maintaining any pool since your first clue usually is it looks funny. You're welcome!!

Why the pool has yellowish stuff at the bottom when the Cl/Br and pH tests were good?
Q. There is a layer of yellowish stuff covering the bottom of pool. It looks like algea but not sure if it is. All tests, Cl/Br and pH were in the right range. The stuff can be scrapped off with brushes and get suspended in the water, but it will settle back down after a few hours. The pump has been circulating for 6 hrs a day.

A. what you have is mustard algae you make sure your alkilinity and ph are correct, add 2 and 1/2 gallons of liquid chlorine, 4 to eight caps full of Yellow Treat, lightly brush the pool, run pump 24 hours,backwash or rinse cartridge, keep stabilized chlorine tablets in your pool weekly and start by checking your T.D.S. level's and see if you have stabilizer in your water. No Mor Problems is also a excellent product that can be used in conjunction with Yellow Treat.
