    Some people live in places where you just cannot dump 5 or 10 thousand gallons of water into their yard. Drainage can be an issue where it goes into a neighbors yard, etc. Without knowing the particulars of a situation it is easier to add those "low cost" grocery store chemicals to solve the problem.

    Ah, okay. I guess we're 'lucky' to live in a drought area.

    That's a special challenge, the caving walls, that vinyl pools present. It would seem to me that that makes the trichlor pucks completely unsuitable in that case. Wonder how many pool companies tell people that.
