I don't have a specific question. I'm in the industry (pool remodels) and I'm always learning. Hoping I can ask questions about oddball stuff I see, and maybe even help by sharing some of my experiences.

I'd be glad to have you here, but . . .
We end up banning about 90% of the pool guys who join, usually because they can't keep from parroting the garbage pool chemistry they have been taught (as I was!) by pool chemical manufacturers.
I looked at your website -- as long as you don't try to push your service, and stay away from chemical topics (except to ask questions) until you understand WHAT we teach and WHY we teach it, you'll be fine.
And, if you are willing, there are a LOT of questions you could answer. My own background is in chemistry and hydraulics on LARGE (100,000+ gal) commercial pools. The sort of pool renovation you do is NOT something I'm expert in.
Thanks for your interest.

I respect that. We don't run service, so I really don't have much dealings with maintenance chemicals. Chemicals are not my strong suit anyways.
I've talked to exactly 1 pool chemical rep, and his was the one product I already used for start ups.
I'll try to stay in the 10%.
