I am from Southeast Arkansas and I would love to learn more about testing and treating my pool. I have a 26x52 above ground pool. I do not get to spend as much time in my pool as I would like to. I am a caregiver for my 82 year old mom who has Alzheimer’s. My grandchildren, however, love it. I am open to learning anything to help with keeping my pool clean and Algea free. I don’t know anything about how to test the water or when, how often or how much chemicals I should use. I have the chlorine tablets in the pool and I have put shock in it once a week. The picture of my pool was taken right after we put it up so we didn’t have the landscaping around it. I would appreciate any help and advice I could get.
