Alum

How long should I wait to go into the pool after applying alum?

If you're using it to clear up a green pool, you'll want to wait until the pool is clear. Otherwise, if you're simply using for maintenance, or another reason, 30 - 45 minutes is good. Thanks for the question.

You should Never add different chemicals to a pool at the same time!

???? dont know where to start
by: Brenda C

I just bought a pool 12×30 ft Bestway pool.... I want to start cleaning the water cause it looks a little dirty... What do I need to buy to start?? Ive heard from other people to buy the 4 step products and to put everything together same time have the filter running all day and night and that it will be safe for swimming next day and that maybe I should just buy the cholorine tablets and place 2 into my filter..... I'm so confused please help....thank u




Thanks for the question Brenda. Having a pool is great and it's simple to take care of, but, there's much to cover. My entire site is about pool maintenance. With nearly 1500 pages covering everything from chemicals to filters.

It would be an enormous undertaking to go through everything you need to do to have the perfect pool. The chemicals, what to look for and what to avoid and why, when to add each chemical, how much, how often, how to test, filters, what to do and look for, troubleshooting, etc... It's simple, but there are many details to consider. If you have a specific question about a specific issue we can go from there. Unfortunately there's really no way, in just a few sentences, to tell you how to properly take care of a pool. What you're dealing with is chemistry. What each one does and how it reacts to the other one. I do offer my eBooks and personal consults if you'd like to start there. they're concise and understandable.

If you feel your situation is more complex than this, I do phone and/or SKYPE consultations. It makes things go much faster and many people have found it extremely beneficial, saving them time and money in the long run. All your questions will be answered. I have nothing to sell you so you know I'm not bias. If you purchase a personal phone consult you'll get all 3 eBooks for free.
