Also in Louisiana, COMPLETELY new to pools

[Watermom]

Jan, you must've been recruiting this season. Seems like we have a lot of new people on the forum this year from Louisiana!

Adding my welcome to you, James, as well!

By the way, instead of advising people to log out to follow the link in your sig, it was easier for me just to hit up amazon and search for the test kit. When I logged out I could no longer view the post, and I couldn't remember the exact nomenclature, so I logged back in and just opened amazon in a new tab and searched that way. For any other new folks that are looking for them, the price is going for $87 on the 2006C kits (more chemical, more expensive but cheaper by volume of all the chemicals) and the 2006A kits aren't even listed right now.

I'm working on some major changes in registration, that will affect. I checked your registration, thinking it would help you, but it won't since it depends on all the 'bits' of your registration matching.

What else do I need to do in order to finalize the registration? I've got the forum registration, I filled out the Pool Chart Entry Form, is there another step that I missed somewhere?

The logging out to use the link think was just a suggestion to have people search for the test kit by name, it was just easier for me to do than log out, find this thread in the forum, then use the link in the sig lines. Not complaining, just trying to make it easier for folks.

By the way, the reason we like people to follow our Amazon link to order a kit is that the forum gets a small commission on the sale which helps to keep this forum online and alive. If you order without first starting at our link, we don't.

You're gonna love having that kit!

R6- I am a Louisiana newbie, too. I know one of the rules of this forum is NO SELLING but... I hope I don't get kicked off for saying that I am sold on this site! I have told all my pool owner friends about it. You have definitely come to the right place! I had a horrible problem with black algae this summer. Even had to send the kids to camp for a week so I could get the pool straight and keep them from driving me crazy not being able to swim! But thanks to Pool Forum (and a lot of work) my pool is beautiful! These people know their stuff! Welcome to the forum, and thanks for your service to our country!

Glad it's been helpful, Shawn.

LOL, as many folks from Louisiana as there are with pools, I'm amazed at how few of us are here!
