I have a bottle of the Walmart liquid chlorine but how much should I add?

Yes I do

They all expire 5/23 and the powder is white.

So I recently had the liner in my pool replaced and pool filled back up. I do have the testing kit recommended on here but I tried using it and felt like I wasn’t doing something right; because the first test that I did it would never turn pink. So today I went to Leslie‘s and I had them test my...

I tried the test and put The one of powder and it says if the water does not turn pink to keep adding and I did that and I got up to like six and it still wasn’t turning pink so I stopped. I feel like I’m not doing something right or my pool has absolutely no chlorine in it. Is it normal to have...

So if I’m understanding the R0870 and R0871 I used vs what the instructions say?

I ordered my kit and it came today so I went out to test the water but the instructions say add R001 and R002 I don’t have either in my kit. Did I order the wrong kit or not understand something. The picture attached is of my kit. I just had new liner installed and I have no idea any levels...

The liner replacement for my above ground pool will be completed tomorrow. We had water delivered to fill it, but I am not exactly sure how to get the water balanced. I looked at the school section and see it says don't SLAM for first 30 days. I am unsure what steps I should take to get the...

I am considering a installing a salt water system but looking while I was looking at some reviews I seen a video saying that these systems are a bad idea for metal above ground pools. If this true just looking for some input from people who have these systems and if so have you had issues with...

Any recommendations? For 18x30 above ground pool. I live in NC winter can sometime get real cold last year we had two ice storms in our area. Not sure if there is something reoccomened for colder climates. Thanks in advance

I paid extra for a main drain on my above ground pool supposedly do reduce vacuuming but it doesn't appear to have any suction when I touch it. Wouldn't you be able to feel it sucking even if just a bit. I kind of feel like it's not even working. Maybe its just there but not really hooked up...

I have been using the testing kit that came with my pool but I did order the one recommended should be here Monday. I'm scared my cya level is going be so high and i can't afford go drain I have a well and water cost around $800 for a refill. I have been using pucks from Walmart Clorox brand the...
