anyone know anything about pools?
 

...

Ummm you mean swimming pools??? I used to be a "pool technician" one summer.

I know they are fun.

My parents make me brush the sides of my pool every few days. And pour chlorine in it. I hate it. I never get in the pool, I dont see why I have to clean it. We've had the pool for 2 years, I've only gone in like 4 times.

I have an inground pool. 9 ft deep. i rarely go in it and probably have to clean it more than i go in it.

they are filled with water

and if there r 6 yr olds in it it will soon be yellow...

Here at the UIUC, the English building is said to be haunted because some lady drowned in it in the 20's. Pools are scarey...

I know pools cool me off in the summer.

Pool water tastes AWFUL when kids pee in 'em!

Thats such valuable information guys, good job

Well, she never specified what he needed to know.

What do you need to know? I do know a bit about them..

Well when you put ..... after you ask something in the title its gonna get you a load of crap for info.

I know a little about pumps, liners and the chlorine levels.

know anything about cleaning them? our pool is really really green...

put chlorine in it every day and change the water form time to time

You have to buy this acid stuff...it comes in a red gallon-sized container thing. I dunno what its called.

EDIT: Its called "Sodium Bisulphate." Whatever container it comes in may vary...

You say it like its a fish tank.

Whatever you do, before draining a pool.... make sure it has concrete sides, not lining sides. If the pool has the rubbery latex lining and you drain it... it caves in.

If its green you need to just keep shocking it I think. We had a pool like 2 years ago and ours would always be green after winter...
