Hello. Thursday we get our new 24' pool installed. The initial water source is well water, which is clear, odor-free and tested drinkable, but I've never tested for iron/minerals. We have no treatment on the well water (softener, filter, etc.).
The installers will use the hose. Then I plan to run the hose overnight. The next day we have water delivery coming, but only a single truck. I don't know how much is in a 'truckload', but was told we'd need two trucks.
I went with one truck to save $250.
I plan to top off with well water. I did buy a 10" Hayward Bobby, since I'll want it for top-offs anyway.
What test kit should I get right away to keep things in balance?
I'm not new to pools, but haven't had one in 10 years, and never had one with well-water before.
