    New liner

    After 20 years it was time for a new liner. Yay! So pretty! But I’m having trouble remembering the SLAMMING process for fresh water.

    no chlorine reading

    I can honestly say I have never had this problem in 20 years. Opened a fairly clean pool a month ago. 2 weeks in we had a nasty wind storm and all the whirligigs from my neighbors maple tree landed in my pool.
