Welcome fellow Texan! Make sure you stay close to these links:
Pool School - Recommended Pool Chemicals
Pool School - ABCs of Pool Water Chemistry
Pool School - Chlorine / CYA Chart
Pool School - Recommended Levels

And of course no pool is complete without the proper test kit from TFTestkits.net.

Let us know if you have any specific questions.
