Re: 30'x54" round I love your deck! - - - Updated - - - I would love to see a picture!

Why the smaller size? I always thought bigger was better... LOL. We live on 7 acres so room is no problem.

Great idea! Thanks!!

My husband & I are looking to get a new pool in the next couple of weeks because our Intex is on its last leg. We are thinking about getting a 30x54, but I am having the hardest time visualizing size. I know it will be bigger than what we currently have, but will I see a difference in the 6 foot...

I will tackle it in the morning!!

Filling my pool up right now and lacks about 2 feet from me being able to turn on my pump. I went ahead and added a gallon of bleach. My readings are. Fc 5 PH 8.3 Ta 300 I know I need to add muriatic acid but was waiting to turn my pump on to add it. By pool math I need to add 1 quart 3 cups...

Thanks!

Does rain or adding water to your pool mess with your CYA? Also, can I use pucks or Evolve (from the laundry isle) instead of buying a whole thing of stabilizer from the pool section if I needed to raise it just a little?

That sounds like a plan to me!!! :D

no my signature line & pool details, but I figured it out.

NOOOO, I was just playing around with the calculator...... just trying to figure it out and was just using 0 as a dummy number. I had rather drain & refill, it is faster to me. My pool right now looks like a Louisiana swamp. Also I have tried to figure out where to put in my info.

So I Have been playing around with the calculator and if I am doing it right it says I will need 60 boxes of Borax if I want a reading of 7.6 for my ph if I have a reading of 0. Oh MY LORD!!!! Do you normally have a reading of 0 on ph if filling up a pool with new water? That would be 60 boxes...

Thanks everyone! I picked up some stabilizer over the weekend & will be getting the rest (bleach, borax, baking soda) one day this week. Wally World carries everything I need & if I do not need it for my pool I can always use it for household purposes... YAY!!!! I think my biggest problem is I...

I can do that, but can yall please tell me what I will need to get started and appr. amounts so I can have them on hand when my pool gets full & I post water results. I had rather have things I may not even need & more than I need because I really do not want to have to stop & run to town to get...

Top quality? I have a Taylor K-1004, will that work?
