We took a big leap and purchased our first pool this weekend.
It is an above ground sharkline 24' oceanic XL pool.
The installer will be here next week to setup the pool and then we can get started.
As part of our pool package it came with a whole bunch of chemicals called "Simple Blue".
I was wondering if anyone has any experience with these chemicals and should I start out the pool with them or go the BBB route from the jump. I have a large amount of the "Simple Blue". The dealer said it should last me at least a couple of seasons? Although I don't know alot about pools or water chemistry I have been reading everything I can on the internet and stumbled across this board.
I think I've got an ok setup on the pump system. It has a two speed 1.5hp pump(sparco I think) with a large 150 catridge filter(not sure the brand).
So does anyone have any advice/suggestions for a new pool owner with no experience? I've already been through the "Pool School" on this site and starting to learn the chemistry side of it.
Thanks for any advice and Ill be posting pics as the build progresses.
