    New pool is installed!

    We had a wet area like that following our pool install and I was sure that we had a leak. We marked the water level and tried to monitor it but it was early spring and it was raining, raining, raining. The pool installer told me that he thought that maybe some water got pushed out from under...

    New to testing..

    Hi. Our pool was installed about a week ago so I'm really new to this pool ownership and testing thing. I'm using the TF100 test kit and I've had a lot of fun reading through pool school and playing chemist with the kit. Yesterday's results: pH 8.2 FC .5 TA 70 CH 140 CYA 0 The black dot...

    Ugh, pool store..

    We had our pool installed this week and have it filled with the pump and filter hooked up and running. I tested the water this morning then had to run my daughter to dance. While she was at dance I decided to stop at a pool shop to check if they carried plain liquid chlorine and to check the...

    Used gas heater price?

    It's definitely based on the unit working well. In fact, he has said to go ahead and hook it up and use it for a few weeks before we even pay him anything. He's a friend and a good guy. We don't want to give him too little but we don't want to give him too much either, kwim?

    Used gas heater price?

    We installed our 24' round Matrix pool on Monday. We were so indecisive about how to heat that we didn't buy anything yet. My hubby was mentioning this indecision to a friend of his and the guy mentioned that he has a used gas heater in his garage. The guy is a plumber and ended up with it...

We've spent countless hours in the backyard trying to figure out the best location, measuring for what size and shape deck we want to do, and discussing what fun...

    Safety fence

    I'm so glad that I posted here and asked about this. I called the zoning department again and got the same clueless woman. I asked her if I could actually speak to one of the zoning inspectors and he called me back. No need for a fence for an above ground pool in my township..just a ladder...

    Okay so it should be easy to figure out how to send a private message, right? I"m sure that I'm missing something simple but when I try to send them they end up just sitting in the outbox and never show up as sent. What am I doing wrong?

    Safety fence

    Hmm good question! The girl that I spoke to at zoning did seem a bit clueless. I'll have to check into this further. Thanks!

    Safety fence

    We are going to be buying a 24' above ground pool. We have pretty much decided on a Sharkline Matrix. We do plan to build a deck all the way around the pool but we aren't sure that we can accomplish that this summer. We were considering buying the resin fence panels to put around the pool for...
