vacation

Okay, so I am going out of town soon and will be gone for 2 weeks. I currently have a Stenner pump that injects .3 gallons of 10% chlorine a day, to keep it around 2-3 ppm. All levels are fine (minus hard water but that's a city water issue) and it stays clean and clear. I get 4-6 hours of full...

Hello all, We are going on vacation soon and are trying to prepare our Inground pool for 14 days away. The pool chemicals are great and no problems so far this summer. It’s heated to 88deg normally and our hot summer days (86deg) and cool summer nights (59deg) have made evaporation a real...

We are new to pools as ours was finished about a month ago. We are leaving for 6 days so I am wondering what to do. Note that our SWG is not turned on yet so it’s a regular chlorine pool for now. I know I should SLAM before I leave but what else? PH is at 7.8 but rises quick since pool is new...

We are headed out of town on vacation for 5 days tomorrow, and for the first time ever, I haven’t been able to get someone to watch our pool while we’re gone. Several of our neighbors moved out in the past 6 months and we haven’t gotten to know the new ones to the point that we could trust them...
