Just bought a house down here with a pool. Looks like the waterpump timer is out so I have been turning it on manually. For you guys with pools, how long should the pump run per day? I ran it a lot the first week, just because the previous owner had let it go a bit.

Pool screens.....

Screening is easy enough to replace, but I must wonder how in the world do they replace those top screens? I have a section to replace, and don't want to end up in the "Darwin awards" section in next weeks rag. Any suggestions? Or just better to hire a pro?
