Keep reading and learning. This is my 16’x32’ pool when I took the cover off for this season. TFP works!

Welcome to TFP! Get some chlorine in that pool! Your SWG will maintain your chlorine level but most likely will not raise it to the correct level quickly enough to keep your pool safe. With no CYA you will loose a lot of chlorine to the sun, so start a sock of CYA. Get a goo test kit, ie TF100...

Welcome to TFP! You truly are in the right place! I researched for almost 2 years before I actually installed my pool. I had many friends stating that they were spending upwards of $1200 each summer to maintain their pool. Many complained of not being able to swim multiple times a month...

Welcome to TFP! This is a great place for information for your new pool. First, breathe,..this really is easy once you get the hang of it. There is no such thing as a completely maintenance free pool, but TFP makes this really easy and inexpensive (after your initial investment). I have an ABG...

Welcome to TFP! You are in a good place here, with tons of informative advice! I have never "shocked" or had to follow the SLAM in my pool! ( I realize I shouldn't have said that out loud) Follow the guidelines in pool school and this is easy peasy! Enjoy your summer!

Anyone? I may vomit,..not sure how to proceed?

So,... do I need to tell this guy to just stop now? He is planning to bring more of this gravel tomorrow. I believe he plans to also build a retaining wall. Will this stay level?

sorry, double post

Help,... the guy who is doing the leveling for me described using something I believe he called “ limestone dust” as a base. He explained placing it in layers and wetting in between the layers. Said it would almost be like a concrete slab when done. I have a gorilla pad, then 1/2 insulation...

Installing my 32' X 16' X 52" ABG. I have a sand filter with SWG. I have been reading to help prevent mistakes. This site has been a huge resource for me and I haven't even put water in my pool yet! I understand that I need to add bleach to get the FC where I want it, then allow the SWG to...
