I want to thank everyone here for all the advice and support! I had a pool installed in October 2011 and was worried when I opened it I would be lost. Luckily, I found this site. My brother is the manager of a pool store and I feel like I can't talk about this site to him because the first thing he said was "Bleach will fade the liner" He said all I need to do is shock once a week and after big storms. BTW, he lives next door and hasn't complained yet about my bleach pool. :lol: I stop by the forum every day so I can read other peoples problems and successes just in case I should ever have a problem. Again, thanks and when I've been here longer I'll contribute to discussions as well
