Hello, I'm new on this forum and ready to learn everything about pool maintenance.
When my husband was alive, I never had the interest to learn anything about our pool, so I'm in trouble now. This is my first summer without him and I have had many bad experiences with pool guys, from charging me outrageous amount for things nobody has been able to fix to changing items the pool equipment that does not need. I'm tired of these companies, and now I'm very skeptical.
For the grace of God, and YouTube, I have learned one thing or two and have been able to keep the pool clear. There are those things that the pool guys were not able to fix, the hot tub empties itself in less then 30 minutes when I turn it on spa mode, when I turn the pool lights on, the power goes off. Adding to this list, some kind of bugs are appearing on the pool. I shock the pool once a week because the chlorine is always low... don't know why since the rest of the chemicals are good.
Thank you for reading me.
