Welcome to TFP!!
A little more information may help us point you in the right direction. Please add your pool details to your signature as described
HERE as it will help us help you.
Then, let us know how it looks now - clear, cloudy, a green swamp.....
We can teach you how to get it sparkling and keep it that way for a lot less money than the pool store.
While thinkg about pool stores, not much credence is given to pool store testing around here. While you would think that a "professional" would be the best, unfortunately in most cases it is quite the opposite. Between employees who blindly trust the word of chemical sales representatives and high school kids working in the pool store for the summer you end up with poor results from their testing. But, what can you do?? We base our pool care system on accurate testing and only adding what the pool needs, when it needs it. To do that you need your own accurate test kit. Order a
TF100 test kit. This kit uses the Taylor Technologies reagents and is the best in the business. If your pool is clear now that kit will give you what you probably need a couple of years normal use.
While you wait for it to get delivered, you have a homework assignment. Start with these:
ABCs of Water Chemistry
Recommended Pool Chemicals
How to Chlorinate Your Pool
So again, welcome to TFP!!
