Need help making pool "swimmable" please

Hint, hint ---- Buy a K-2006 --- hint, hint. (Was that subtle enough? )

Really, it will make this whole pool care thing SO much easier for you. Then, you won't have to be diluting and trying to decipher how high the cl is. The good kit will tell you precisely how high it is.

I'm sure you read so many posts here (and are very helpful, thanks so much!) that it's hard to remember what you read by whom, but I did mention in my initial post that I've already purchased the Taylor K-2006 earlier this week, just waiting on it (not so patiently I suppose) to arrive, and doing the best I can in the meantime to guesstimate the chlorine levels to see if we need to add more.

Then I started reading more posts here and ordered the Taylor K-2006 test kit this past Monday (June 28). It was late Monday, so we probably won't get it until at least next week. Not sure how long it will really take. We ordered it from SPS Swimming Pool Supply company.

I try to be a quick learner!

Thanks again!
