    Robotic Pool Cleaner - A30i/S300i feedback

    I am using Calcium Chlorine tabs for now until my calcium comes up to target range. Once that happens I will switch over to liquid chlorine exclusively.

    We would rather do some type of stone of faux stone than tile but tile may be the best option. The pump runs about 9 hours/day currently and the PH has been holding pretty firm between 7.2 and 7.4 using one chlorine tab in the skimmer, 1 lb of shock and 1 lb. of baking soda per week. Thanks for...
