Good afternoon, This Friday I am getting a new liner installed. I am excited to open fresh and not have to slam for what feels like forever. My question is do I add the conditioner sock first before adding anything else, or go ahead and add chlorine while I'm waiting for it to dissolve? My...

Hello, When getting a quote for getting a new liner installed from a pool company, I am getting the " you should never buy a liner from the internet, you never know what you are going to get". Is that just them trying to scare me into buying from them? what should i look for when buying one...

Hi all :D Im in the middle of a slam and i could swear last year i read there was a way to test where each 0871 drop counted as 1 instead of 0.5. Am i imagining that or is there a way to do that? I currently fill to 10 and test with each drop equaling 0.5 Thanks!!

Hello everyone, this is my 2nd year using this method and I’m getting a late start. We just got the pool topped of and the filter going. Got what we hope is all the leaves and debri out. We did not end up doing a proper closing last year and we are paying for it now. It’s probably at 50% New...

This might be a dumb question but to get the accurate water volume, do I need to actually measure how deep my water is, or just knowing how tall the sides are is enough? I found the calculator at the bottom of poolmath and wondered how exact in the depth I need to be.

I have read pool school, my testing kit is on the way. What Im not sure is how long (on average) does your pool have be at shock level to kill the algae? I pretty much never have 2 days off in a row. I usually get home around 4. On the day I start it, could I begin around 4:30, check final level...

Hi Everyone! So this is my 4th year as a pool owner. We have a 24 foot above ground pool. Im not gonna lie, I have just barely winged it for 4 years. I basically just threw shock in it every once in a while and towards the end of the season it would always go green. Then I would either wrap it...
