Please do not take this as snarky. I do not mean it as a cheap shot in any regard. But the irony of your statement is that impatience is what brings most of our new members here. They couldn’t be bothered to test and maintain the pool so they took a sample to the pool store once a week and threw a chunk of money at the pool to mask the problem. Without ever fixing the problem.
I TOTALLY see your point that the summer is more than half over and you don’t get to swim until November like they do in Florida. But what’s done is done and there is no magic pill to fix the pool water. Time and effort is what you can do if you want it right, and to stay that way. The pool store will sell you problem masker and things to make it *worse* until they make up terms like ‘chlorine lock’ and tell you to drain the pool. They start you on the imbalanced chemistry roller coaster on day 1.
