“2nd part.
My husband didn't want to do installation so they recommended someone to us, however if there is a problem with installation it is not there responsibility.
That being said the product is great and we have enjoyed our pool tons. We even.bought a heater from them to extend our usage. I would highly recommend them. Love our pool!!!”

Are your pool supplies suitable for both above-ground and in-ground pools?

Most pool supplies—chemicals, test kits, brushes, hoses, and maintenance tools—work for both above-ground and in-ground pools. Equipment such as pumps, filters, ladders, and liners must be matched to your pool type and size.

If you’re unsure, contact support with your pool details for compatibility assistance.

Can I order replacement pool parts online?

How do I maintain proper pool water chemistry?

To balance pool water properly, follow these steps:

Adjust Alkalinity (80–120 ppm)
Raise with sodium bicarbonate; lower with muriatic or dry acid.
Adjust pH (7.4–7.6)
Raise with soda ash; lower with acid.
Balance Calcium Hardness (200–300 ppm)
Increase with calcium chloride; reduce by partially draining/refilling.
Sanitize (1–3 ppm chlorine)
Use tablets, liquid, powder, or a salt chlorine generator. Shock weekly/biweekly.
Check CYA Stabilizer (35–60 ppm; 60–80 ppm for saltwater)
Helps protect chlorine from sunlight.
Monitor Total Dissolved Solids (below 1,200–1,500 ppm)
Drain/refill if levels are too high.
Shock the Pool
Boosts free chlorine to eliminate contaminants.
Test Again
Ensure all levels return to proper ranges.
