Buried AGP pool in NTx

[Txpirate]

We purchased a 21' round Doughboy pool from Crown last month and are finally having it installed tomorrow. I've read posts on here from others in my area who have buried an AGP and I am optimistic that we will have a good experience.

The ONLY thing I have every done is SWIM in a pool. I have no idea where to start with actually taking care of a pool and since tomorrow is THE day, I guess I need a crash course.

What did we purchase:
21' Autumn Breeze
SD60 200# sand filter
Polaris 65 automatic pool cleaner
Hard bottom
Timer
and a few other things...I guess I'll be doing my best to keep my head above water.

Welcome to TFP! Your first stop (after ordering your TF100 test kit!) is the Pool School located here on this site. Read it, then read it again.

You can order the TF100 kit here: http://tftestkits.net/splash-page.html

Pool school, a good test kit (not strips based) and the pool calculator is all you need, asap!!

This will give you:
- the knowledge on what to do and why
- the kit to perform the tests
- the website that gives you the level of treatment based on your test results

Maintaining a pool is not hard if you put in a bit of time to learn and get a good test kit, it's not something you need to pay someone else to do. The first few tests may be a challenge but it's all repetition, after awhile you'll have it all committed to memory and you'll have low cost crystal clear water!

Post some pics when its up.
