So..I have a bit of an interesting case here. Opened yesterday: pool was as clear as it could be with some algae on the bottom. I get everything balanced, vacuum up some of the algae and debris on the bottom, then add some stabilizer to get the CYA levels up slightly. Everything looks good...

I’ve heard for awhile that they’ve gone up, but just saw it for myself today. Was going to get some liquid chlorine, and saw the aisle for the pucks…$5 a piece?!? $45 for 5 lbs? That’s the highest I’ve ever seen it. Not that I really care as I use liquid chlorine, and while it has gone up, it...

Hi everyone! Hope you guys are as excited for spring as I am! Plan on opening next week, and currently getting everything ready. What’s the best way to check if my reagents in my test kit are still good? I stupidly left them outside this winter and honestly forgot.

Interested to hear what everyone loves/hates about maintaining their pool!

I realize it isn't the best time to ask after I've already purchased one, but hey!!! Never hurts to get opinions... I guess 😂 I've heard varying opinions, from the build quality being insanely cheap, to people loving them and using them everyday as part of their testing process. I purchased one...

So... just out of curiosity after purchasing my own test kit, I decided to go to the pool store to see how much the results differed. I tested my water immediately before filling up the bottle they provided to take to get tested, so there should be very, very little variation between the...

So, just wondering what most of you guys have experienced with extremely heavy rains and your PH level? I know most rain water is quite acidic, but I'm thinking (more hoping at this point) that maybe the heavy rain will help aerate the water and raise the PH a bit? I'm in the process of...

How often do you swim this time of year? Interested to see what everyone has to say!

Just wondering how often most of you guys are testing this time of year?

Do any of you have a speaker system wired for your outdoor/pool area? Just use some nice Bluetooth speakers currently, but it's certainly an interest for me in the future. Anyone running a certain system or have recommendations? Let me know! :)

Just ordered the Taylor K2006C test kit. Can't wait to have accurate tests!

Thought it might be something interesting to look into. Especially for someone who travels a lot and won't have to bother the neighbor ;) Hahaha!! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07B2NQG2D/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_QT3578T8PFPNFVDGCWN0...

Hey there! Hope you all are having a great weekend so far... I was just wondering what brand/type of shock you guys reccomend? It's pretty tough finding any type of chlorine at the moment, so I'm a bit limited, but I'll do my best to seek any reccomendations online. I've used Clorox XtraBlu for...

Hi everyone, just wanted to give a quick PSA to those who are using Clorox's XtraBlu line chemicals for their pool. I've been using the product lime, specifically the chlorine tablets for around 3 years and really haven't had any issues, but for those unaware, they contain a pretty high amount...
