Are you sure about that? Last I checked, they told me it was $17, which is not a great price. When did you get the $13 price for 4 gallons? And which Leslie's?

OK. So after further investigation, I found that Pinch a Penny Pool Patio Spa sells liquid chlorine in Houston area. Their stores are located on the west and north sides of town. They sell 12% of 2.5 gal for $8.53 (22.2 cents/oz). This is by far the cheapest price I found. The only catch is that...

Hello, I have a gunite pool with many black algae spots and some mustard algae. My CH is also at 550 causing some calcium scaling (it's not too bad). I tested my fill water, and it is at CH 200. I think my pool could greatly benefit from replacing some water. I am thinking because there is so...
