Panty Hose on Skimmer?

Get yourself a decent test kit like a Taylor K-2006 from the pool store, or an HTH kit from Walmart for starters.

So true...I cannot stress enough how bad the sticks are and how valuable a good test kit is. I got the Taylor kit listed and it is so much better then the Walmart ones or even the ones my local pool store had. This forum has made life very easy. I am now down to only adding bleach and have had nothing but perfect measurments for the past month plus.

The skimmer socks work real well for dog hair that gets into the pool. I have three dogs that all love to swim! Before the socks were installed, the hair clogged up the filter and had to be taken apart and cleaned out. Now the majority of the hair gets collected in the socks..
