Hello all,
First of all, thanks in advance for any reply to help me and my issue. We had a gunnite pool installed 5 years ago. The Pool is great and absolutely beautiful. We have had a chlorine demand problem 5 times in 5 years. One of those years with no issues. I've read many articles on chlorine demand so I'm beginning to understand what it is, kind of. I regularly have water tested at the pool company. It Has cost me many, many bags of shock, thousands of dollars fixing the problem and many nights staying up to resolve the demand issue. This year it was recommended by the pool company to do a full drain in the middle of the season and that only has partially solved the problem. As of now, it is maintaining chlorine, after 40 bags of shock over the last 24 hrs., but seriously, am I doing this all wrong.???? 4 other pools on my street and no one else has had this problem. jim brink
