Default What is this white scratchy stuff on the sides and bottom of mypool?

The idea is bizarre. I'll stick with my Polaris. Taking care of a pool
is really not that difficult. I think the old KISS rule applies here.


I agree with you! But it's too late for me. There is no vacuum attachment
anywhere, so the only vacuum that would work would be a wholly self
contained one.

BTW, there 'is' an unused port that goes from the middle of the pool to
the pump area. It is capped off but I guess I 'could' put a pump there
(my fourth) and it would then act as a vacuum. But it would have to have
its own filter because there's already a filter loop.

Weird. Very weird. It took me a while to figure it out because everything
people told me didn't make sense when I had tested it (e.g., to use the
skimmers as a vacuum).
