Hello all. Great site we have here!
Recently purchased new-to-me house. Previous owners were very carefree and the pool was practically decimated w algae when we moved in (i thought all the black stuff was part of the tiles' design). Pool was chlorine, changed to salt, now is back chlorine, which came as a surprise when the previous service showed up to take their SWG back. Very high CYA, but everything else has gotten on track. Paid an outrageous amount to a service for the first 2 mos of ownership to get it back to normal. DIY now for the last month, cleaned the filters yesterday. Wow!!! The dogs do a number on those things!
Looking forward to contributing when i can. Used to take care of pools as a kid, albeit 25 yrs ago.
