    I'm renting. Although I was offered the option of doing it myself, if I wanted it done sooner. I opted for saving my time and letting the owner pay someone. Before he started I gave it a really good scrub with bathroom cleaner and a sponge, then a rinse with a jetwash. Reckon all the guy did was...

This all started because I thought i'd offer to keep an eye on the ph and Chlorine. Then I learn about alkalinity, oops adjust. Then I learn...
