👍Thank you much! with the chlorine shortage ( due to plant / suppliers burn down in La) and the price has went out the roof a person needs to keep the pools as clean as possible with out using the chemicals. It's gonna get worse before it gets better.

Thank you so much! I have followed you from the beginning. My Polaris is amazing. This being that it is a sweeper with water pressure shooting out does such an amazing job that me and my friends were blown away. I have a lot of pine trees Unfortunately. The Polaris does a great job picking up everything off the bottom. I have the same pump you have as I told you in the past. It works amazing! Thank you sir for helping and guiding us slow folks to the finish line. Please don’t stop your videos!!!

I know nothing about pools but it makes sense about clearing that filter out and the basket out, you don't wash your dishes in dirty water and your vacuum cleaner works best when it's empty, you are keeping a clean house buddy. Real interesting show please take care stay safe and God bless

@@papawsplace is it a cost effective upgrade buddy or is it just gimmick, another thing I saw was with one of the car channels I follow he has a in the ground pool but it still had a removable pool liner, he was getting his pool worked on so he was emptying the pool, well where he was in Canada the temp got up to 130 degrees and the sun reflected from his pool actually melted the pool liner. Well his was the first salt water pool I seen, I never knew that these things existed. I will fey and find the vid for you pal, take care my friend

people think these pools won't last, mine has been up for three years and is not showing any signs of deterioration, I leave it up over the winter, i don't take it down and fold it up, I think that is what causes weak spots which start to leak, I also decided not to do salt water due to how it will rust the metal legs, I suspect if taken care of I see no reason one shouldn't last 10 years......I'm also gonna get me one a them Polaris65 cleaners through your link...
