Hello all. New to the forum and cutting the cord and costs of my pool care company. Looking forward to learning how to care for and manage my pool on my own and looking forward to gaining new information and knowledge here.
Thanks

Welcome to the forum!

I suggest you read through Pool Care Basics - Trouble Free Pool and even look at a few of our videos TFP-TV - Trouble Free Pool

Welcome! This is a good time of year to take it over yourself. If you don't have a Saltwater Chlorine Generator then plan on stocking up on liquid chlorine and muriatic acid from Wally World, HD, Lowes or Ace. Get the newest products by date code. Get one of the test kits that we recommend so that your tests are accurate. Don't do any testing at a pool store because their results are skewed toward selling you stuff you don't need.
