Hello All, Just installed our new 18 x 52" Intex pool. All is well, girls went swimming in it today. Only hiccup is water was yellow/green upon filling with municipal water... took sample to Culligan, no iron, said color was probably tannins. Added 13 oz of dichlor (small pool sanitizer) yesterday retested (Taylor 2006 kit) and ph is up from 7 to 7.8, FC and CC now 5, color is starting to disappear :-) Added a second return across from stock fairly low in the pool as I plan to add a skimmer (would like help on which one to buy) and run it using my old pump/filter 1000 gph which want to also run a small fountain with. Love all the GOOD info on here.
