Hi everyone. I haven't posted since I converted last year.

So far things are going well. I must say that I'm somewhat surprised at the amount of bleach I'm going through on a daily basis, but it's a small price to pay for a crystal clear pool. And it's still significantly less expensive than Baquacrud.

Many, many thanks for your help and encouragement.

By the way, has anyone heard from Ben? I too would be willing to support the cause with a donation or membership fee. This site is too valuable, and it's saved me $$$$.

Anyhow, in case you're curious, here's a link to the pictures I took of my pool during the conversion process last fall, which lasted around 4 days. It went exactly as most of you have described, including my wife becoming seriously apprehensive at one point...lol. She's certainly a believer now though:
