re: Pool thoughts from those of you that have them

pools are a money pit.

having said that, we bought a house with a liner pool/chlorine.

rolled liner replacement into closing costs of house and thanks to TROUBLEFREEPOOL.COM (check it out) maintaining it costs next to nothing.

the secret: lots of chlorox bleach from sams and arm & hammer baking soda.

99% of your pool issues will be solved with those 2 things and a good water testing kit.

you dont need algaesides or SHOCk or any of that other $$$$$ pool stores try to sell you.

thats about the sum of it.
