    Okay, I'm getting a bit confused. And, I'm sorry about the confusion on the size of our pool as well. Anyway, we do have a sand filter system that comes with our pool and I ordered the saltwater system to go with it. It arrived day before yesterday and our pool has arrived, as well, but I can't pick it up until my husband gets home with his truck to pick it up. We are considering contacting our local fire department to fill the pool as some friends of our daughter's said that for a donation they will come fill it up so you can get that part done faster. I'm not sure how they do that, though, so I don't know whether that would be the right thing to do or not. As soon as I get a chance I will watch the videos. Oh! I did finally find the OTO/Red Phenol test kit and am ready to test when we finally get to that part. Thank you for your time and patience with me. :-)

    Make sure you have some dichlor on hand, before you fill the pool.

    Dichlor has stabilizer in it; bleach does not. You can get too much stabilizer in your pool, but without it, you can lose ALL the chlorine in your pool in as little as 1 hour of full sun, no matter how much you put in!
