I would first like to declare how pleased I am to have found this great resource and community. I have been patiently reading for the past few weeks, but neglected to create an account until now, the day my new AG pool was installed!

The goods:
We have a Vogue Costa Del Sol 15x26 oval that nis 54'' deep. We opted to have a main drain installed, and we have a ClearWater2 Cartridge filter by Water Way (200sq ft) and a Supreme 2 speed, 2 HP pump also by waterway. All electrical work was done by a licensed electrician. Finally, and I almost hesitate to say this, the pump and filter combonation also included the FROG leap system. I'm on the fence about this because of what i have read here, but I also want to use what was given to me for free. I Will wait to hear more on that later.

For now, i have some simple questions. When should i start testing and adding things to the water? The water level is about 6 inches from my skimmer right now.

The only thing that is not done yet is installing the ground wire from pump motor to pool frame. However i have a resin top rail and the only part of the bottom track that is visible is also resin. The only steel that is exposed is the upright, but i'm not sure i want to be drilling and grounding anything on my pretty new upright. Can anyone suggest where i might make the connection (no one will be entering the pool until the ground is on).

Thanks in advance! I'm looking forward to learning and helping in any way i can!
