Hello TFP. I just want to say thank you for this website. It has been an indispensable part of my pool regimen since I've discovered it. My early years of pool ownership were full of frustration and $$$$$'s wasted to the local pool "experts". After finding this site, I've followed it and kept my pool sparkling clean with simple, straight -forward advice that has saved me money. You guys have helped me in the past when I've posted and I wanted to share what happened this year upon opening.
Last five+ years I've closed per your recommendation and opened with no problem. Always opened to crystal clear water. This year I opened to a green swamp. (see pics). I knew exactly what I did wrong. I cheaped out and tried to reuse my winter cover for a third year in a row. It had become compromised from overuse and leaked the top stagnant water below. Won't do that again. So, I had my first SLAM experience! Followed the sites instructions to a "T" and now have sparkling clear water again.
Thank you so much for this site!!!!
