My swimming poos is surrounded by three palm trees. As the wind blows, I get the long leaves in the pool. Also, the surrounding area is covered by decorative rock. I have tried the net, automatic pool cleaner, manually sucking them out with the pool equipment. Usually I have one of the kids swim to the bottom of the pool to get them out. Is there a better way?

Answer
a pool cover and reel would help with the leaves.a solar cover is fairly reasonable and the reel would make it easier to use.as for the rocks the kid retrieval system seems to work.you may want to see about removing the rocks from around the pool,especially if you have a vinyl liner.good luck

Swimming pool regulator valves?

Patrick

I recently got a new automatic pool cleaner for my pool and it came with a few extras like a bunch of new hoses and a regulator valve that you connect to the the weir. What I'd like to know is whether these regulator valves actually do anything besides tell you how strong the suction is from your pool pump, and if so, what else do they do?

Answer
Depending on the model you purchased, the extra equipment will have a different function. You should include all the relative information like make and model and double-check the instruct manuals.
