Hi - new pool owner here - I drug my feet for years but my wife finally talked me into having one. We just had a 24' round above-ground Trevi installed last Sunday. Filled it with our own well water and did the first back-flush of the sand filter this afternoon. We're going through a heck of a learning curve for a 68 year old. I was put on to this site by a good friend who is a pool owner and says he has received a lot of good help from this site.
 
Welcome to TFP!!!

I hope you friend already told about the test kit you are going to need. See Test Kits Compared.

Have you ever tested your well water for iron? That is always a concern for well water. It is manageable, but better to know without big surprises.
