Just my 2 cents at this point, but this forum has historically helped pool owners enjoy their pools with less hassle using the BBB method, the Taylor test kits, frequent cleaning and smaller pumps. I have read the entire Pool Solutions site and scoured this forum, and I think if you do too it will help you maintain your pool with less hassle and more time to do other things. I am in the middle of a transmission rebuild myself, I spend 5-10 minutes a night on my pool.
