I like the warnings/graphics on pump lids and filters. No one needs a magnum 1500 lid slicing through the air.
There’s a non zero amount of poop on a toothbrush. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Hi Steve,
Your videos are meaning the world to me these days! I’m getting closer to have a swimming pool and jacuzzi built by a contractor and I have no words to thank the high and accurate knowledge you are sharing through your RUclips channel!
I’m sure you’re an engineer, perhaps master o doctor on some are of the knowledge… even if you were not, man… I can tell you you know and understand the physics, chemistry, electricity, measuring equipment, etc… way better than anybody else I have met and seen in You Tube.
I’m so thankful for your willingness to share!
LOL. Im so glad I found your channel. few videos in and I find this gem? Fkn' great, man! :) I know so many people named Steve.
Thank you Steve, great info. I always tech everyone on my home where is the pump shut off talking about drains… is dangerous.
Steve, thanks for everything. You helped me do a complete in-ground pool renovation and tweak a ridiculously fine pool pad with all your favorite stuff....huge schedule 40 lines, anodes, water-bond, heater bypass, check valves, sweeps, proper lengths, 45's.....everything you mention. You are very knowledgeable as well as entertaining. In fact, you are so entertaining that my sister watches you and she doesn't even have a pool. Cheers, brother.
That last part about family really spoke to me Steve! Thank you!
Actually that’s a pretty damn good pitch about owning a pool. It’s usually presented in the negative. Steve is sincere not a swimming pool sales person working on commission. I like that
Pool skimmers too, there is also suction entrapment cases from skimmers being played with, skimmers can disembowel you too since they also use suction
I was wondering how long before the word disembowel showed up in the comments section. Thank you ;)
I’ll be straight here, when you’re shooting down a water slide, you’re getting an enema lol that water rinse is going right back into the pool 😂
That's it, I am headed out to dump a couple of gallons of chlorine in the pool! Great video, Steve - as always!
The funniest video I have watched today is about swimming pools
Steve I always like your knowledge you help me sometimes I really appreciate keep the good work
Thank you. I am happy I am able to be helpful for you.
Steve, you've inspired me. Now I'm wracking my brains to come up with a murder mystery thriller, where the bad guy is disembowelled by his own pool pump.
Yes officer, this is the comment right here...
Thank you Steve
Steve, What do you think about the Rol a Chem Chlorine Feeders? Do you like the idea of using liquid chlorine vs for instance tri chlor tablets (thereby increasing the stabilizer levels over time)?
Informative, scary, disgusting, and a great ending to this video!
Informative, scary and disgusting. The trifecta that defines Swimming Pool Steve ;)
Very interesting facts i didn't know, thank you sir
Very interesting Steve. Thanks
Laughing Steve, pass me the shovel ! Thanks again, and of course you’re right about making memories
I just keep picturing screaming kids swimming as you fill in the pool - STOP IT! DAAAAD STAAAHHP!
I don’t feel any suction from my pool drain. I have two of them . Sawn to then bottom , put my hand on it and did not feel suction . ??
Why is my pool filling up halfway full only and i cant fill it up anymore until its brim? Can u pls help me. I just diy-d my plunge pool. My pool size is 75in wide x 200in long and 34in deep. So now, it’s only filling up to 20in only.
Any thoughts on Chlorine vs Bromine for Hot Tubs?
I frickn hate when mfers that make pools color the drains the same color as the walls, you don’t notice it until your right over them, terrifying 😭
I am still wary/ scared of drains, skimmers and any other pool suction points. I never swim them and friend think I’m silly. I always remember my swimming girls with long hair wear it up in a bun or put a hat due entrapment risk for skimmer though lower the floor drain its still there.
Same
I have fear of any machine inside of pools, i could not own a pool without having a panic attack
I love the people in my condo say , when we get a new pool can it be salt water because I'm allergic to chlorine?
Hi Steve, I closed my swimming pool a few weeks back. This past summer was the first season I did not see one speck of algae in my pool. There were very hot days, but I made sure to keep the alkalinity and PH at the desired levels, and added shock on when it rained a lot. Which brings me to my question. This was also the first season that my test strips read a high amount of total chlorine. Which most probably translates to a high level of chloramines, which is bad. One thing I didn't do is to try a different set of test strips. Aside if the test strips were bad, can you suggest why the total chlorine was so high? Next pool season I am tempted to empty out a good portion of the water and start fresh. But if you have any other suggestions, please let me know.
I’m obviously not Steve who is insanely knowledgeable about pools. But I will say this. If you are self caring for your pool, ditch the strips and learn how to use a proper fas/dpd test kit like the Taylor k-2006 kit. They are not hard to learn and will allow you to understand everything you need to know about your water.
Learning how to use a kit properly will tell you how much free chlorine you have, among many other things. Ultimately answering the question you posted above. Because simply dumping in “chlorine” and then dipping a strip that just seems to indicate there is a bunch of “chlorine” or chloramines (combined chlorine) will never tell you the truth of what your chemical additions ultimately did to your water.
got to love when your friendly swimming pool man Steve
reminds you of a non ideal Doctor telling the freaky 0.4 out of 2000 chance of suffering haha
keep on doing your good life Steve
What do you mean by "avoid"...I'm trying to picture what is happening here. People putting their faces on them, their tongues? Getting their hair close? What are we talking about here, very vague comments.
Sitting on them. You avoid this by knowing suction drains can be dangerous so you don't decide to put your ass on one out of the blue one day.
@@Swimmingpoolsteve Like the main drain at the deep end of the pool? So like avoid stepping or sitting on that?
@@Swimmingpoolsteve I am an 11 year old and deathly scared of pool drains but I have swimming lessons in a pool where they can be avoided what do I do
I had serious buyer's remorse up until the end. Now I feel okay again and I will continue to throw money into the hole I dug in my yard.
