What is broken if you vacuum a pool and the algae gets shot back into it instead of being removed?
Either your filter needs to be cleaned or replaced.
How do i Get rid of algae in an empty pool?
Algae dust that comes from the algae fairy right? Anyway the best way to get rid of the algae skeletons (as one of my customers calls it) is to vacuum them directly out of the pool bypassing the filter. The problem is that these dead algae spores are too small for the filter to pick up so they end up going right through the filter. The best way to vacuum them out depends on what type of filter you have: SAND FILTER-Use the waste or drain position on the valve to vacuum your pool this will effectively remove the algae from the pool. You will have to refill the water you drain out of the pool when you are done. DO NOT COMPLETLEY DRAIN THE POOL. If the water gets to low stop and refill before you continue. D.E. FILTER-If you have a multiport (this valve will have at least 4 positions on it) valve on the filter put the valve in the waste position just like with the sand filter above. You will have to refill the water you drain out of the pool when you are done. DO NOT COMPLETLEY DRAIN THE POOL. If the water gets to low stop and refill before you continue. If you don't have a valve to backwash or you have a backwash valve that only allows you to filter or backwash then you have a difficult situation. The best thing to do is get an extra pump to use to vacuum the pool separate from the filter system. The other option is to plug all the return lines where the water comes back to the pool then remove the filter grids (if you have a grid filter) and open the drain valve on the filter and turn the pump on to vacuum the pool. Make sure that you have the water directed away from your filter system and your house. CARTRIDGE FILTER-Here you have a real problem if you have an in ground pool and about the only way you will get rid of the problem is to get a portable pump (or a separate pump) and vacuum the pool with this pump discharging the water out of the pool along with the algae dust. If you have an above ground pool you can plug the return and the skimmer. Then remove the filter cartridge from the filter. Reassemble the filter without the cartridge then where the water comes back into the pool take the hose connected to that fitting off the side of the wall of the pool and directed the hose away from the pool, filter system and your house. Then turn the pump on and vacuum the pool until the algae dust is gone. DO NOT COMPLETLEY DRAIN THE POOL. If the water gets to low stop and refill before you continue. FYI _ Cartridge filter they sell this bag that goes over your skimmer basket it cost like 8 dollars and it filters all of the algea into it so you dont have to drain the pool.

What is the best way to clean the bottom of an inflatable pool?
with a vinyl vacuum cleaner. I get in the pool and make a whirlpool. Most of the light and heavy debris gets caught in the whirlpool. Then spend about 20 minutes with the skimmer and it's clean. It works best for me.
Can you swim in a swimming pool if DE gets into the pool?
No
How can you prevent or correct leakage between the side walls and the liner resulting from ground water after spring thaw or rain around the in ground pool?
The only way I can imagine doing this would be to dig an agg drain around the pool thereby draining the ground water as it gets to the pool. The problem with this is that you would have to have a point low enough to drain it to or have a sump wit a pump in it which sounds rather expensive depending on how much ground water there is.
Do you vacuum on filter or backwash?
Typically you only need to backwash when your filter's PSI is double its starting PSI level. For example, mine starting PSI is between 7 and 12, so when it gets to between 15 and 20 PSI I'll backwash.
There are 2 holes in the bottom of your inground pool skimmer which one should be plugged when opening your pool?
Yes and no. One hole, the one to the rear of the skimmer goes directly to the pump. This also acts as your vacuum hose port for vacuuming the pool. The other comes up from the main drain. Covering both of those ports should be a float valve type of an assembly. One of the purposes of the float valve is that when and if the water level gets too low in the pool then the float in the valve assy. seats and will then let water flow in to the pump directly from the main drain. Hope this is satisfactory. Ken
Is it possible you could stick a pool ball down your throat?
Yes, it is possible. If you watch 1000 ways to die, it will show a daredevil swallowing a cue ball but gets stuck in his throat and then dies. By: your FACE!!
