Hey,
Just wanted to say thanks to everyone on this forum / site. I purchased a house with a 13x20 above ground pool and had 0 knowledge of pool ownership and recently took possession. Everything I've learned has been off this site.
Today is the day where I attempt to open the pool, I have a Taylor K 2006C ready to test after it's filled and pump is running with a decent amount of liquid chlorine 10.8%, 3 inch pucks and some algaecide on standby.
I'll probably be busy so I'll post photos of how it goes.... Wish me luck.
Equipment:
13x20x4.5 oval (6900gal / 26000L) Unknown manufacturer
Hayward encl 3 ec1309 Pump
Carvin Sand Filter (fresh sand)
Hayward Inline Chlorinator (3" pucks)
Hayward Gas Pool Heater
Olympic Skimmer
I am currently in the processes of pumping the excess water off the winter tarp using a submersible pump and garden hose making sure no debris enters the pool. The water looks much better than I expected but since I am in Canada it freezes most of the winter.
