    How much do the pool companies charge for pool cover clean up/ storage?

    How much do the pool companies charge for pool cover clean up/ storage?

    Question about Return jets

    I think it is. Mine is the same way and the jets push everything on the surface towards the skimmer.

    Very High Total & Free Chlorine

That's when we lowered the swg output to its lowest setting. I will get a test kit asap, but for now, if we...

    Very High Total & Free Chlorine

    Hi, We have a new 16' x 40' fiberglass pool with salt system. I am using test strips to test the water and our chlorine level (both total & free) is very high, around 10 ppm. We decreased the salt system's output to its lowest setting and it did not help. Total hardness, alkalinity, and...
