I have been a pool owner for 5 years with good success. Found this site to be very informative. Looking forward to reading for more ideas. I have a 16'x32' Desjoyaux pool and have had very little problems with it.

Thank you,
Duke

Anyone out there with a Desjoyaux pool that floods? Whenever I get a heavy rain the back box floods, the motor gets wet and the pool shuts off. If I'm out of town I come home to an algea bloom. I'm on my second pump in four years! Anyone converted the system to an above ground filtration sytem?

The problem is not in your Desjoyaux unit but of the surrounding area. The surrounding area should be inclinated in a way to force the water away from the filtration unit.
