Pool Store Questions

The first half of your post makes perfect sense...you will love the kit.

The pool store lady is totally misinformed. I would disregard her "expertise".

Your children would be in danger from swimming in an inadequately sanitized pool if you run cl of 1-3 with cya of 100. Not a good thing.

There is little if any evidence of danger to you children swimming in 8ppm chlorine, espec with CYA=100. 8 is the MINIMUM FC you should have at that CYA level.

There is CENTURIES of evidence of the danger in swimming in improperly sanitized water. Cholera, typhoid, other water-borne diseases. Killing algae has no effect on them.

The clerk doesn't know her elbow from a turnip when it comes to pool chemicals.

Oh my god, the pool stores are amazing. I went to Leslie's looking for some Cya test chems and the box on the rack was empty. All they had was the full kit. I asked the girl there if they had any in the back and she said "no.". She then proceeded tp stare at the rack for a few minutes until I said "OK, I guess I'll just get the kit then.". I swear she must have been stoned LOL.

Do they hire people that they feel are not capable of doubting their practices???

IMHO, for the most part, yes!
