Hi
Cant think of any other way the sand gets in the pool
It must be from the filter, did you put gravel in the bottom or just sand??
try the vac to waste to get the sand away from the pool then see if the new sand does the same thing.

ps should have upgraded to Zeolite not worth using sand these days

The pump is overheating and cutting out, when it cools down it resets and starts up again
may be the thermo switch or the pump needs some more air

You can have a cover with the roman steps on the side, it will always be a bit costly as the best way is to have a large rectangle.
If not they can make a piece that just covers the steps with a separate bar which spans the roman steps
if you email me the size I can give you a quote

Hi
Everblue are usually a good company so i would think that the back fill is ok
This seems like it may be the water table causing the problem
Sometimes the liner will go back without any creases but if not it will have to be refitted,
You may be wise to put a land drain in, if it is possible.
As far as i know Insurance will not cover this unless its counted as a major storm
Contact Everblue and ask them to take a look.
Good luck

Just thought i would let you know that MG have agreed to change all NEW alarms that are still in stock in shops ref PRE005-M
But they say that the alarms which have been sold are still ok and no agreement to replace them has been made.
Keep you informed when hear anything

Pools should not be left empty for any length of time no matter if they are liner or not.
But no problem if its emptied and filled after cleaning
best to do it when its a dry period to limit any problem of underground water.
if he pumps it out with a big pump 20cu hr it will not take long and it will be scrubbed and re filled the same day, just like changing a liner

Ps reading my last post may have sounded like i meant leaving the pool empty so i hope thats better
cheers

Hi
Is it a liner, block or steel pool, Monobloc????
Simplest!
Do nothing and forget about it, its probably green.
Empty scrub and refill when you are going to use it next

Hi
Thicker liners will not help.
Do not know why all of the liners will need changing why not just fit them again when the water table goes down.
Best way to stop this is with a land drain and a decompression hole next to the pool.

well Julie
Do not know what to say now!
You seem to have done all the normal things, if the pump is primed then the water should flow!!!
priming means that no air is in the system and that water can flow through,
Would make a visit but you are a long way away
Sorry
ps call if i can give any more info
i will do my best to help

Have you tried to vac it out with a wet and dry
You may have to drain some water out to put the pipe down the side of the liner and tape around the gap between the pipe and liner.
this works. just like sucking the air out when you fit a liner, it sucks the water out from behind.
if not it will drain away in time, sometimes the creases go as the water underneath goes, if not it may need sucking into shape again.

I will try but its better to talk
Do not know if the sand filter and pump are under the pool water level which changes what you need to do
Try this for a start
Switch all off
put sand filter on circulation
switch on,
call me any way
chrish

YepThink that its not primed
as teapot says sometimes a bit tricky
if you want to call i will talk you through it

You should report the pool installer; they have a responsibility to make sure the pool has security after they have installed it.
By the way many pool companies use cartridges so be careful what you say or be more specific.
At the minimum the pool company should get a signed attestation from the pool owner that they will sort their own security out.
I cant believe that after all what has gone on a pool installer would be that stupid and say that!!!!!!!!!
As far as i have been told its the local Gendarmerie who polices the security problems.

Hi

Hi just some more info.
Aqualarm who make one of the alarms which failed the test have sent out a fax to say that the DET10 alarms have passed an LNE test and will not be called back, even though they failed the last one.
I called and asked if i can sell the alarms which i have in the shop, they said no wait for more info.
Catch 22

yes i agree we would fit a ladder which can fold back or can be removed when the cover goes on.
be careful of a second hand cover, make sure you get a cirtificate of conformity
if you want an idea of costs let me know

They are sending out info to pool companies to try to get distribution in France.This is what is in it but they do not give amounts etc so need some more info.PoolSan is a saturated complex ionic aqueous solution containing chiefly Copper, Zinc, Gold, Silver, Aluminium, Manganese, Iron and Nitrogen.When we are all trying to cut out as much additives as poss seems to me to have a lot in it.Will keep you informed of any progress.Did not think the price was that inviting.Chrish

Hi Yes i agree with Andrew lets get rid of sand.
I tried to start a no sand policy on the TF forum but they said it was advertising.
Piscine-plus.com will no longer supply sand only Zeolite or AFM
Standard pools will have Zeolite FREE of charge, i hope other companies will join us.
