    Good advice. Sounds like you have steered her correctly. As far as bleaching the liner is concerned, just remind her that bleach is 6% sodium hypochlorite and pool store liquid chlorine is usually 10 or 12%. Why would bleach, which is a weaker solution, harm the liner if pool store chlorine wouldn't? People are just scared because of the 'b' word -- bleach.

    By the way, send her to read at www.poolsolutions.com and also encourage her to come and read through a lot of the posts here on the forum. Particularly some of the 'stickies' at the top of some of the forums. It will provide her with a good education about taking care of her pool.
