Old dog looking to learn new tricks

[Christiane]

I am new to TFP, came upon the site searching the internet for reliable pool water tests. Dissatisfied with using pool supplies company tests and recommended chemicals for 15 years. 19,000 gal pool exposed to sunlight all day at up to 117F in the summer and down to 59F in the winter (freezing temps seldom and short term at night). Little rain but lots of wind blowing dust. Challenges: hard water, septic tank (no public sewer).

Welcome to TFP Christiane!

You found the right place. Take a look at the link below and scroll down to the sections on test kits and recommended chemicals. The test kits at tftestkits.net provide the best value for the residential pool owner. Step up and select one of the TF-Pro options with Smart Stir...you won't be sorry.

Hard water issues in LV are a challenge. Figure out a way to connect your fill/top-off line to softened water to mitigate calcium rise. Your best course of action is to get us some reliable test results and we'll get you on track.
