Hi all,
My pool last season was run stricktly by the BBB method. At the end of the season (Oct 08) I closed it with shocking, and soon it will be reopened. Following the advice of chemgeek and waterbear, I've adopted this "shocking rule of thumb": FC higher than 0.5? Shock! No? Don't shock! Should I follow this rule on pool opening, or should I shock no matter what?
