test

I added a salt water pool last summer in central Florida. Due to work/travel schedules, I had a company handling pool maintenance. I am looking to take it over myself at this point. I took my first reading using the Taylor K-2006C kit and input to the Pool Math app (pic attached). Doing some...

Hello everyone, New house/pool owner here since August and I'm having a hard time understanding the different chlorine results I'm getting which causes me to doubt my ability to take care of the pool myself. My issue is that I don't know who and what to trust or at least how to understand the...
