I've done quite a bit of reading, learning, and more reading. I'm purchasing a house in Tampa, FL that has a rather small pool with hot tub. Maybe 12-14k gallons. It is currently a traditional chlorine pool. I'd ask feedback for the best products and solution to simplify the chemical balance. I'm fairly handy and expect I'll be able to figure it out, but I'm looking to lower the curve as much as possible.
I've figured out that Pentair, Hayward, and Jandy are the 3 major manufacturers. The pool guy's reference is to install a Jandy TruClear SWG.
I've read on a few other posts about IntellipH systems, Sense and Dispense systems (questionable reliability), etc. I'm interested in the Stenner MA dispenser as well.
I guess the magic question, if you had it to do all over again with 20/20 vision, as the saying goes, what components would you use as a whole solution to convert to a salt water pool and make the day-to-day\week-to-week maintenance as simple as possible. I'm not lazy so I didn't say as "easy" as possible. I'm just trying to keep it simple but also reliable.
Many thanks to all those that post here and provide invaluable insight into the magical juggling act of pool maintenance!
