Thanks so much for the reply. Appreciate the help.

Hi all, I have a new build and just got the Polaris 280. I'm curious as to run times. Do I run this daily? If not how often? And for how long? What's your schedule? TIA

I agree. I grew up with the old tarp covers and pools were ready to swim the next day. These guys want 7500 for a new safety cover install with no guarantee that my tiles will not move or buckle. The old tarp is about $400. Not $4000 but rather $400. Besides the ugly look of it I have a fence...

anyone? please?

Hi all I am curious where to find calcium in summer? Since it's essentially rock salt I didn't think home depot would have it now. I live in NJ. Thanks in advance

Sorry about that and thanks for the feedback. The bleach was this: HDX 121 oz. Germicidal Bleach-23008948211 - The Home Depot. I have modified the link.

Re: What do I need to add SPECIFICALLY. NOOB Here Im thinking I can just walk into my local Home depot or walmart and get the products. Are these products appropriate? More concerned about the calcium and the stabilizer. Muriatic acid - HDX 2x1-Gallon Muriatic Acid-2118 HD - The Home Depot...
