Hello from California- 1st time pool owner

[misertern]

I recently bought a home with pool. 1st time pool owner and decided to maintain myself.

Have lots of questions on the pool maintenance. Found this forum through search.

I am already following some suggestions, although i fear i am not doing things in write order and have some questions.

Just wanted to say hello here and ask for help in pool maintenance.

Welcome!

You ought to consider filling out your profile (User Control Panel/Profile/ Edit Profile) so we have a better idea where you are. The north coast is way different from the SF Bay area is way different from the LA-San Diego megalopolis is way different from the Central Valley and so on.

Added info, i am in SF Bay Area, East Bay.

East Bay AND Silicon Valley? Two houses or a really really big house?

 

[misertern]

hehe.. SF Bay Area is silicon valley, east bay is east side of Bay. One house. I wish i could have one house that spans both areas..

 

[mas985]

Sorry, I am just a purist. I know the definition has expanded over the years but I am in the East Bay too and would never consider it as part of SV.

 

[misertern]

Well.. I like to *think* i am still in bay area.
