Hubby and I are going on vaca for a few days next week. I sent him to the pool store to pick up a small bucket of tabs. (Got cya down to 40 so it wouldn't get too high with the tabs). My little 85 yr old mom will be taking care of the pool and I need to make it as easy as possible for her.
I warned him not to buy anything else and don't mention bleach. Sure enough, the guy asked him why he was buying such a small bucket. Hubs responded, my wife takes care of the pool and uses liquid chlorine. Guy went on a rant saying they do NOT recommend liquid chlorine and how much more expensive it is and how hard it is on your equipment, etc etc. not knowing a thing about our pool, poor hubby didn't know what to say but got his feathers ruffled, so replied.....ummm, my wife is a chemist. Lol. No I'm not but it shut the jerk up. Husband did say as he walked out the guy was shaking his head.
Crazy!! What business is it of his? Think I'll send hubby back with MY results of:
FC 5

PH 7.3
TA 75
CH 75
CYA 40
And...crystal clear water!
