Pool built in summer of 2013 but opened late (Sept 2013). I'm in my first full year of pool use after it sat dormant for most of the winter.

I've already posted several items to TFP and I'm a huge fan of PoolMath...THANKS!!! Any chance of turning PoolMath into an iPhone App??

Thanks a lot for this great resource.

Thanks!

My pool builder is a "one of kind" guy with over 25 years in the business and really knows his stuff. The landscaping was done separate from the pool build and our landscaper was a good guy. My only gripe after a year is that I wish I had done more succulents and cacti around the pool which would help keep down the leaf litter. The big problem is that big old mesquite tree in the back which, for those of us in the southwest, is a nightmare, ie, constant leaf litter with leaves, needles, seed pods, flowers, pollen, etc...I originally ran the secondary suction without an in-line leaf bag and I clogged the 2" line so bad my builder had to come back to clear it....love the shade it provides but HATE the clean up....
