    Would this work to cool a pool?

    I will have to second that duraleigh and thanks for the idea. I have to turn mine off sometimes to let the water get warmer. It will cool it by about 4 degrees

    Finally found liquid chlorine, should I?

    Check in your local yellow pages of the phone book. I found liquid chlorine at a chemical supply company. Call pressure washing companies and cleaning chemical companies.

    Chlorine ppm question???

    Borax is used to raise your ph. CYA or stabilizer is used as a buffer for chlorine so the sun doesn't burn it off as quickly. You need to read the info in Pool School. There is a wealth of information in there. Hope this helps :-D
