1st time Pool Owner

[tmorton1987]

I just ordered a 24 foot round above ground pool that has 52” walls. With a Powerline XP 1 pump 1.5HP, AquaView 20” Sand Filter. They also threw in a oxygen pool water treatment system. After reading pool school and other threads on this forum it seems like I should ditch the system and chemically treat it. I wanted to get y’all’s opinion on it.

Thanks,
Tim

Welcome to the forum!
You still need to add chlorine to the pool water even with what I suspect is an Ozone system.
Read Ozone Systems - Further Reading
I suggest you read ABC's of Pool Water Chemistry.

This is the system they threw in.

Our oxygen based water treatment products are being used on thousands of residential pools and are so clear and so fresh that most Oxygenated Pools near me.

Oh my. Run away from that piece of trash. Ozone, with Non chlorine 'shock', and copper. I am not sure how they get by the EPA requirement of having a residual chlorine, bromine, or baquacil level in the pool. But I would not even give that thing away to an enemy.

Get a SWCG. Far easier and more pleasant to swim in.
