Our Pool is Finally Clean!

We hired a pool person to get our pool up and running. We had no idea where to start and it was really gross, so we are glad we didn't try.

All clean! It's amazing what chemicals can do. Now we just have to work on the ring around the liner. Our pool person said it will come off in time, but the magic erase sponge really works well to take the stain off.

yeah that is what our pool lady said too. I believe her, it just doesn't look that nice right now. But we can swim in it now, so that is a good thing. Chat Icon

Chat Icon Chat Icon It actually smelled like a swamp! It was so smelly and slimmy too. I couldn't believe that any chemical was going to change that water, but all she did was add more water to the pool and shocked the heck out of it with chemicals! And of course vacuumed it many times.

I've never had a pool before, so we are realy excited about having one.

Chat Icon we took the slide down. It was gross and we just didn't want to deal with it.
