Just Bought A House with a Baquacil AD System

[MaryLee]

Our water generally is very clear and bright and I am not having any difficulty maintaining the clarity. However, I do have to scrub the sides of the pool every few days to keep a very fine dust like green algae from growing.

It is not difficult to keep under control, but it's a routine thing that I have to do.

The only real complaint I have with the system is the cost of Chemicals.

Wow. Honestly, I would convert ASAP. Having to scrub the fine algae off the walls as routine maintenance means that the pool is really not sanitized well. Why not convert now and save a ton of money this summer and not have to worry about a non-sanitized pool. I use strictly bleach and I've never had to deal with algae growing on the walls. I test every other day and as Carl D says...Keep ahead of my water. Seriously, consider converting this season. Good luck..

With chlorine, you should expect chemical costs to be less than $50 per month including one-time purchases like stabilizer figured in. Plan on a week to convert (although it can be done sooner) but the sooner you do it, the sooner you can start saving $$$.
