Hello all,
New guy here from S.E. Michigan, first post. Getting ready to hopefully have an operating pool in the next few days or so. Bought and installed a used 12x24 pool. Currently filling with hose. It came with a sand filter, of which I replaced the sand with new pool filter sand. Wondering what chemicals I should initially start with, and how much? I did search the site and couldn't find anything on starting up. I will be buying one of the recommended test kits so I can get help from this site. Thank you all for any advice.
Edit....pool test kit won't be here till next week, being a holiday weekend. Is there a a cheap test from local pool store I can do to get things rolling?
