Is The Mainstream Pool Industry Finally Coming Around?

[oledan]

I've come to trust TFP's methods without question. That said, I try to learn all I can about pool care & Chemistry from various sources and I know to disregard what goes against the TFP way! I know the "mainstream" pool care industry says I need to have 1-4ppm FC and 7.4-7.6ph etc......

Well today while listing to a pool care podcast on YouTube (Newdude says I'm a retired guy who needs a hobby but my argument would the THIS is it) I finally saw something that agreed with TFP Protocall's! At least on the FC/CYA ratio he did, however, on other ideas he strayed a bit.

My point in all this is perhaps the industry is no longer going to think we're crazy and they realize they might lose their foothold with their outdated chemistry ranges?

I took a pic of the podcast if anyone is interested in giving it a look/listen.

They've been slowly coming around, in part from Chemgeek lobbying/working to better things.

Another change in recent years was the manufacturers slightly elevated CYA for SWGs (50) and 2 to 4 FC instead of 1 to 4.

Like you said, baby steps.

To be TFP clear, I absolutely love your hobby.
