    getting blamed for a rash.

    I did go to the pool store yesterday just to confirm the numbers and I also mentioned the whole swimmer itch. She gave me a funny look like I have no idea what you are talking about. She sold me nothing only advised me to turn down the swg from 20% to 10% I did add two cups of ph down last...

    getting blamed for a rash.

    My water always looks perfect. It's why I'm feeling a certain kind of way about this. His issue could very well be chiggers since he was fishing the night before in the woods and the marks look the same.

    getting blamed for a rash.

    Ok so we had a couple over for a pool party. later that night I got a text that he had what looked like mosquito bites on his legs. Apparently I'm being blamed for swimmer's itch. I never even heard of it before. No one has had any issues in my pool so I'm seeking input.

    Disastrous start up.

    Because of all the storms last night and I just let the swg finish it's boost cycle. After that it is running at 20 and at least it's not blinking red low salt so I did add enough salt. All these storms are making adjustments pointless as I keep having to drain water out of the pool. More...

    It's becoming real.

    Waiting on our pool to be built was a long waiting game. The permit process went smoothly I guess it helps living in a small town. I got a bit terrified when the borough came out marking things and was trying to find the sewer line. Can't put a pool on top of a sewer line. We are doing a...
