We've moved into our new home with pool and have a "pool guy" taking care of the pool over the summer.
Now that winter is coming .. Im in SoCal so winter is a relative term, Ive decided to start taking car of the pool myself. Thinking that a winter pool has fewer "problems" than a summer pool I might get my feet wet in caring for the pool.. pardon the pun.
So.. Ive:
1. Ordered a TF100 test kit..
2. Starting to hoard chlorine bleach (buying a bottle everytime I go to the store jut to build up a small supply).. sounds like I'll need at least 4 or so to start
3. Found... "ThePoolCalculator.com"
But I have some questons...
How much Borax and Backing Soda should I have on hand to get stated.. say the first month.
What am I missing..
