Hey Guys,

I installed the new liner and the pool is filling. Boy the old liner was brittle! I have an aqua leader illusion pool. It's about 15 years old and in great shape. Everything came apart easily and the beaded liner fit perfectly. They originally gave me the wrong size....54" deep but thank god they had a 52" in stock. The liner they ordered in for me was a 20 ga and the one I ended up with was 25 ga. Lil different print but looks great. Glad that's done.

Ok.....my question. I don't want to bleach out the liner and after 20 yrs of pool ownership am wondering what the proper way is to introduce the chemicals into the pool. Wondering if I should go back to bacucil or stick with the bio gaurd soft sticks. wether I should use my auto clorinator, put the sticks / tabs in my skimmer, floater or what.
It seemed like when I first started using baqucil 10 or so yrs ago it was great, but then they changed the formula and it didn't work as well.

I also need to say that I've been going thru heat exchangers anually and not sure if it's cause my ph was off or because I shock thru the skimmer.. I do have a check valve between the outlet and the heater....actually 2 of them.

Any idea's for me?

Thanks Guys / Girls
