I was speaking to a PB today regarding a quote they gave me for building a pool in Houston. I was asking him his opinion about water chemistry and salt water pools and use of trichlor pucks etc.
I was a little surprised at their remarkable lack of knowledge even though they are in the business.
For e.g. : Me: what do you recommend the free chlorine level to be at when using SWG..
Answer: Nope...I'm not that much into water chemistry.
Me: What is your take on the increasing CYA levels using trichlor pucks?
Answer: haven't heard of anything like that.
This PB quoted in excess of 100k to build a "pool" only. No kitchen, no landscaping, no pergolas or covered structures.
My question is: Is it reasonable to expect a PB ( that too the owner) to have in-depth knowledge of these things or am I asking for too much?
