That is so funny! My kids do the exact same thing. They love to comment on how their friends' pools are as clear as their own!

ours is 88 which is way too warm for me!! it feels more like bath water. i think i will try freezing water in the clorox bottles. great idea :thumleft:

Welcome lilsis1234!!! I am from TN too. (Dyersburg, about 1.5 hours north of you) This place has wonderful people and excellent advise. I have been reading for about 8 months now because we bought a house with an inground pool and I had no idea what to do with it. I found this place and did...

I have been debating about getting one all summer. I just didn't know if it was worth fighting the battle of the white stuff.

Do you actually use less bleach with the liquidator or is the usage the same? I just pour bleach in front of my jets each night.

My toilet is sparkling too!!! :lol: I use my old pucks in the toilet. The idea came to me one day when I was dropping one of the bleach toilet cleaners into the tank and had a light bulb moment--I had a ton of unused chlorine pucks in the garage and sure wasn't going to use them for the pool!!

So, should I look around the pool supplies or the water softner supplies? I looked at our wal-mart last night arould the pool stuff but I didn't see any...I really didn't know what I was looking for. Do they carry it at Lowes?

Where do you buy salt to use in your pool? Is the pool store the only place to get it? I would like to add some to my pool (I am using the BBB method) to make the water feel better. I have read about it on here but just didn't know where to get the salt. Thanks!

I have a friend who is having the same problem. The "pool store" is telling her that the cya level is 65 and she has no chlorine. They instructed to shock the pool with granular shock and placed her name on the service call list. Can she just add bleach instead of granular shock? I know zero...

Thx!! The pool is 2 years old. How often do the filters need cleaning? It is a sand filter.

I have been helping a friend now for a week with her 30' AG pool. It was originally green and I have cleared that problem up, but I can't seem to get her water to "sparkle" like it should. What should I try? FC=7 CC=0 PH=7.4 ALK=100 CYA=90 By the way, I have been reading on the forum for...

I have called all of the local pool stores in my area with no luck in finding liquid chlorine. I did find a local grocery store with the 6% gallons for .99. I would still like to find the 10-12.5% somewhere locally. I tried the Lowe's here and couldn't find anything except 6%. Maybe I was...
