Hi all,
I joined this forum many years ago and Ben and everyone else was SO helpful and taught me the ins-and-outs of the BBB method. Haven't had the opportunity to have a pool for about 6 years now so I haven't been here. I forgot my user name and password if it is even still in there so I have re-registered.
So ... bought my first home this spring and I now have a wonderful deck that I have set an inexpensive Intex 22x52 10,000 gal pool up to (temp pool until I actually know the costs of my new home). It is up and running and I thought it was time to come back and make sure I know what I am doing (since it has been at least 6 years).
So far it is going well. I have well water and even though there is a little metal in our northern Indiana water, the 2500gal/hr pump is filtering it well and the water is slightly discolored but not cloudy. I have a 6-way kit and I am working on getting the CYA levels up now to keep my chlorine from dissipating.
Any new tips for the hot weather we have been having lately? So far, like I noted, everything seems to be going okay with the new pool setup but I want to be on my toes and be able to post if anything goes wrong!
Thanks all!
Tami
