Re: cant hold chlorine.. pool company says high phosphates..
No, not from a utility. It's is quite common to own a private well for you home water needs in the states. Often times such water is ladden with calcium and iron, which makes it a difficult task to fill a pool or avoid metal staining. The only other option for folks in this situation it to fill it from a pond (if avail.), or have it trucked in. To have 3-4k gals of pool water delivered is around $250-$400, depending on the area you live in and the distance from the water supply it is being trucked in from.
On the opposite end of the spectrum, you should count your blessings that you water supply is so cheap, I thought ours was cheap at around $170 for a 13K gal pool
