Shut off power, vent trapped pressure, and loosen a stuck pool pump basket lid safely without cracking the plastic housing or damaging the rubber seal.
Brush pool walls to break the slime layer before shocking so chlorine kills the algae. Pick the right bristles for your finish and clear patches without liner damage.
