    I lift the cover today and got water sample. FC=0, PH 7.2, CYA <20 T/A=20 Salt water pool. Water looks ok, some leaves but color is ok. SHould I dump bleach to raise FC to 3.0 and start the pump before I do anything else?

    New vinyl pool build in central PA

    I am not sure what soldier course is. I guess I am in the same boat as most of the home owners. Unless I know exactly what I want or contractor offers and explains the option I really do not know what other posibilities are out there.

    New vinyl pool build in central PA

    Yes, that is techo blu-60. I think it worked out great . The walls are $$, if i remember correctly 26-30k. But it is a lot of work to put them, it is not just a weekend job. Guys did great job with building good base, putting geogrid, drainage and filling a lot of stone behind walls. The whole...

    How does IntelliBrite 5G connect to EasyTouch?
