We're converted BBB'ers

Hi W&M!

Great first post! That's what we like to see--a successful conversion from Bac BEFORE you ask the WOTTLEYEDOO??? question!

Welcome!

Thanks for the encouragement! We have a cheap test kit from the Walmart. Do we need to invest in a better kit??? We did change our sand. It had a thick layer of lovely Baquagoo!!! We are keeping a check on CYA, Chlorine (FC and CC), PH, and Alkalinity. Is there anything else we need to be doing? Our water is lovely!!!!

"Do we need to invest in a better kit?"

YES!!! It will pay for itself the first year!

I bought Taylor's K-2006C kit from Leslie's Pool Supply. $84.00. They also have the K-2006, $64.00, it has .75 oz re-agent bottles.. The K-200C has 2 oz bottles. I think, from what I've read, that Ben's kit is best, but if you want one now the Taylor kit is second best. Compare Leslie's and Taylor's website so you can figure out what the item number is at Leslie's. The pictures are the same, except Leslie's website has a pool in the background.

Thanks! We will certainly check into that! Every day we are amazed at how clear the pool is!

Now your finally going to get to enjoy your pool....you only thought you were before. Now when it rains you can be thankful about it filling the pool up some instead of what this going to cost me....ha. My third year since the switch and I couldn't be happier!!!
