    'Bear, I think Holly got the point.

    In fact, our B-B-B method is based on the fact that good pool maintenance does NOT need lots of chemicals pushed by pool stores. We generally don't recommend:
    Phosphate removers
    Clarifiers
    Bluing
    Flocculents
    Yellow-Out
    Metal "removers"
    Copper
    Silver
    Nor a zillion other things.

    Normal pool maintenace, and even algae fighting can almost always be done with:
    Bleach/Liquid Chlorine
    20 Mule Team Borax
    Muriatic Acid
    Baking Soda
    Washing Soda
    and CYA(stabilizer).

    Holly,
    Post that question in the above ground pool forum where you're likely to get some of the installers to see it. Some of them don't read the chemistry threads.
