Hello TFP fellows,
I'm a new comer not only to TFP but also to the swimming pool itself. My husband and I are thinking about building and owning our very first pool
We have started talking to the local builders (we are in DFW area). The knowledge I learned from the forum has helped us tremendously through the discussion. So big thanks to y'all here!!
Now I've got this one question that I can't figure out through reading the Pool School or the posts - it might seem a little dumb to most of you with any kind of experience with maintaining a pool. I just simply have no idea :?
So I read about different sanitization methods and would like to go with liquid chlorine (BBB) method. Now how exactly does that work mechanically? Where do I pour the B, B, and B in when needed? Can't just dump them into the pool, or can I? Whenever I mentioned liquid chlorine, I got this weird look from the designers who are trying to sell their ozone or Fusion system, which are obviously not going to be my choices - I did my home work in this forum! :-D I asked about an automatic dosing system but one PB said they've never seen that on a residential pool. But there were plenty of people around here talking about installing one.
Could anybody take the patience and explain how the liquid chlorine sanitization system works, especially mechanically? What kind of equipment is involved, where does it go in, how do I do the maintenance (physically) and if there is an automatic dosing system available for the residential pool? Thanks so much I advance!
Don't have a pool signature yet. Hopefully will have a good idea of what we are going to have in a couple of weeks! We are getting excited :-D
