    I certainly wouldn't get 100#. Go for what you can carry. There are dissolve rates but ....I don't know what they are. Also, floaters and in-line chlorinators have adjustable rates, so you have to play with them until you see what works.

    The beauty of online pool supply shopping: discount codes and free shipping. Buy all you want and the delivery guy puts it on your doorstep. :-) You can usually find at least 20% off coupons.

    Can't beat that! Waiting for my new Android phone now! Should I call it "Data" or "BladeRunner"?

    I like BladeRunner (or Deckard to be even more discreet).
