    chlorinating options with a potential shortage

    I am in NE AL, I cannot find any chlorine, liquid, bleach, nothing, all stores are sold out, online search shows none anywhere as far as VA. No tablets, no pool chemicals of any kind at hardware, walmart, feed stores, nothing. Whats the alternative?

    Chlorine shortage- AL

    We cannot find chlorine, liquid or tablets or shock, there seems to be a shortage, what can we do to keep our pool from ruining while we wait on chemicals? We don't even know if there will be any? Willing to travel for chlorine, but haven't found any in 500+ miles?

    Pool lighting idea...

    We bought this Aqualuminator light on ebay 7 years ago, our light still works and the only trouble we had was when my husband was turning it to adjust the water flow we ripped our liner, but saw it immediately and patched so its fine. We must have gotten a good one, 7 years ago!

    Above ground pool LED light

    we installed an Aqualuminator that we found new on ebay for about $70 this summer. It works very well, it installs in the return opening, you do not have to drain to install, my husband and I did it. Its pretty bright, I think we could use 2 of them, our pool is 30' round.

    Stair step secure....Any thoughts

    Hi, Those are metal, from the plumbing or electrical department, might be electrical, the pipe screws into those. Also used pvc glue and he ran a bolt thru both the uprights to secure them together, seemed a tad wobbly before that.
