I've had a mesh cover for my pool for the past 5 years, and the only time I have opened to a green pool was 2 years ago, (When I lost my wife and had to open WAY late). I swear by them! I don't have to deal with water collecting on top of them during the winter, OR that same water getting into...

I guess I should add that is 12.5%

The concentrated acid will eat at any and all equipment as it travels through the system on the way back to the pool. Keep in mind that the acid needs the water volume in the pool to be able to be diluted back to levels that are safe for your equipment. The best placement is after ALL other...

Well, I was not able to get out to the pool yesterday due to weather, and company coming over, so I just trusted the Stenner to do it's thing. Today the pool looks good enough that I dialed back the chlorine times quite a bit. I want to let it drop to FC <10 then test the PH level. When I...

I have been here for a while now, and can tell you that what you are going through is what brought me to this site all those years ago. The methods here WORK, make sense, and are repeatable time after time. Not to mention the money that they save you! This is what I have been dealing with for...

It's all good. I would give anything to have her out there in her "Oversized Tanning Bed" with me at this point. There was no offense taken, and I hope you didn't think I was upset with you. :)
