    Default Re: A Cheap Pool Cooler

    BRRRRR! I went out to do my weekly testing this morning, and my water is at 75 degrees! I am going to remove them and screw the eyeballs back in. Once my water gets back above 85, I'll put them back on. The kids love them as they play in the spray.

    One interesting thing Dave, my skimmer seemed to work better with these on both of my returns. I was afraid it would be rendered useless since the water wasn't circulating as normal. I think I will adjust the eyeballs so the water kind of dies in front of the skimmer. Before, I would watch the debris float by the skimmer. Going to have to put the fur panties on underneath the bathing suit to swim today, but it beats the 91+ I had prior to adding the coolers, as my water would probably be 100 now, and you feel like you are marinating in a crock pot instead of swimming.

    I just finished plumbing in my new pump, I think I have almost everything needed already. I'm gonna get on it right now. We've had daytime highs of 92-106 for 23 days straight.
