Hello from Australia! I just bought a house with a pool and I'm thrilled because I love all-year swimming. I have spent the past couple of months relying on test strips and pool-shop testing, but found that the advice has been sadly lacking and I'm wasting money on chemicals that I now realise have been unnecessary. And the pool-shop owner has been telling me "Don't worry if your cyanuric acid is high. Mine is really high. It doesn't matter." OMG, seriously?? I like learning all about how to do things myself. I am also trying to get rid of mustard algae (yes, it really is mustard algae). I am almost on top of it. What a marathon. I'm really pleased to have found this forum. I have ordered a test kit so soon I will be able to do my own accurate testing. Yay!!
Welcome! It sounds like you're going to be a great TFP-er in no time!!
