Hello everyone!
I am the lead pool operator (CPO in charge) at the University of South Carolina in Campus Recreation. I am in charge of 3 pools (Outdoor Pool-115K gal, Indoor Pool-140K gal, and Spa-1,500 gal.). I have seen this forum online looking for advice to deal with algae, and I wanted to go ahead and join so I can make all 3 of my pools the best they can be! Mad respect to all you pool owners and CPOs out there! You can see me on the algae forum soon because my outdoor pool is currently in the throws of battle!
 
Welcome to TFP!!!

So you are aware...TFP is focused on residential pools and spas. Our advice and recommendations, in many ways, will NOT meet the requirements of a commercial pool.

Welcome to TFP.

You might want to read this to see where TFP thinking differs from your CPO training...


It is up to you to use TFP thinking where you can while meeting the various regulations for your pools.
