I've followed TFP for a few years and my pool is in excellent condition because of the help and support from this site.
I have a 18' diameter AGP. 8600 gallons or so. My wife and I are planning on a 14-21 day vacation next year.
I do my daily & weekly testing and adding of the liquid chlorine, but what happens when we go on vacation?
I had a thought, and it's crazy, but my wife is in the medical field, I thought about a Chlorine IV for the pool. How can I get IV tubing and tap into a gallon of liquid chlorine? Wife thought I spent too much time in the sun that day, she said it was crazy.
So that's, my question, How do I maintain the chlorine level in the pool while being gone for maybe 20 days? Should I lower my CYA and switch to chlorine pucks for the two weeks. I really hate to ask friends to take care of the pool daily.
Thanks!
