I was walking in our neighborhood the other day, and my neighbor's babysitter, who happens to be a friend of mine, asked me to test their pool water. It was green. So I tested it with my T-100, and it came up 0 CL, and 0 Stabilizer. I gave him the basic scoop on what to do and told him about troublefreepool.com. When I spoke to him later in the day he said the owner didn't want to put bleach in the pool because of damage to the liner, yada, yada, yada. So I said fine, just keep doing what you are doing and get the same results. Yesterday I was driving by and saw him pouring some bottles of something in the pool, and I noticed a few empty Walmart bleach bottles nearby. I had to chuckle to myself.
Funny, my neighbor might be getting the message.

Funny! Our neighbor used to have an above ground pool. For several years we would watch with amusement as each year they opened a filthy green swamp, spent forever trying to get it cleaned up, finally achieving relatively clear (at least not green) water for about a month ,then right back to nasty again. Burned up more than one pump over a period of about 5 yrs too. After several years of this, they finally just tore the thing down. Too bad we didn't know about this site then...
