Hi. Brand new to this site and forum. Also new to owning a pool. Just bought a 10ft round pool for my kids - stands 2.5 ft tall.
Based on my calculations (using the formula Pi x Radius squared x depth of pool x 7.5) 3.14 x (5x5) x 2.5 x 7.5= 1472
I’m estimating the pool to be under 1500 gallons.
I’m looking for best practices in keeping it clean using either regular bleach or chlorine tablets. I read online that 9.6 oz of bleach would be appropriate for our size pool but I’m unsure how often to add. My husband purchased the 3 in chlorine tablets and I think we should exchange for the 1 inch.
We have a pool cover, kids are using the pool daily. It has a pump we keep on 12-14hrs a day. No skimmer.
Any help would be appreciated. I’ve been looking stuff up for over and hour.
Thanks!!
