Just registered to the site but I have been referring to this forum for 2-3 years when I have issues with my pool. We have 60,000 gunite pool just recently replastered (this is our second summer with it being renovated). During the renovation I had new skimmers installed and plumbing around the filter/pump redone. When this occured I had the company install two automatic chlorinators (tabs) becasue I couldn't keep the chlorine level high enough during the summer with all the swimmers we were having. We replace the old pump with a Intelliflo 2 vst pentair and had the sand changed this year after having some green water issues. I didnt have any major issues last year but this summer has been a pain.
All this brings me to the old issue of liquid chlorine vs tabs, I've read a lot and I know everyone says liquid but, would this be the case for a small commercial pool. Larger waterparks use liquid chlorine with automated systems, I just wonder why our contractor wouldn't have recommended this, and no he doesn't sell the chemicals or had a friend selling them to me. Thoughts / comments?
