We had build our pool last year (see here and here for old threads).
Last year we found a leak in the liner (3 inch tear in shallow end) and it was replaced a week after the pool was newly opened.
Then a few weeks later we found a leak and the PB detected it near the ladder in the deep end and it was a pin hole. He patched it. However, we expressed that we were not happy with a patch on a brand new liner. Spoke to him and the manufacturer and we got a new liner. PB said to just use the pool and we would replace the line in the Spring.
PB closed the pool and opened it this week and also replaced the liner.
Pool is almost full now and they put in 13 bags of Salt (I believe each bag is 20kg).
Questions:
1. Should we add CYA now?
2. PB said not to turn on the SWG as it's still cold and to wait until temps are 10C (50F). Is that ok? How will Chlorine get created? Or do I need to add bleach?
3. Anything else we should do aside from waiting for better weather? The pool is at 44F!! Water is freezing.
Pics of the opening are here. I love seeing all the pics people post, so wanted to share ours too.
