I have been  thinking about getting a pool and I dont know what to get.  A salt water pool or one that you have to put chemicals in.

Even if you have serious ecology & health concern, still you may want to make an informative decision and choose the best chemical on the market, relevant to your criteria. You may want to use a lot of online sources: e-opinon.com, bizrate.com etc., newsgroups etc. Home made cleaner could be much more dangerous and expensive solution.\nBig competition and huge volume of manufactiring in the industry made the best cleaning chemicals available for pennies. You could even order them for free, as samples in frames of some advertizement programs.

um.. one word- OUCH! shower, pool, its all the same pain game. not fun, not romantic, actually pretty challenging. but if your a guy, no matter what answers you get, we both know you'll try it anyway just to say you did. good luck and lube up. just use a water based lube if your in the pool, you certainly dont wanna leave an oil slick behind!

Most pool chemicals will gradually reduce in stability and effectiveness when subjected to heat.  If you have a shady spot near the pool where the tub can stay, that would help.  If you live in an area where daytime summer temperatures average 80 or higher, indoor storage is about the only option.

I doubt you'd find a public pool without chlorine, even in private pools it an essential additive for the water, wear goggles that fit well, and dont swallow the water, shower very very well afterwards, if thats no good, then you'll just have to wait for sumemr and swim in the sea...

Ahh, man, I probably would get in trouble, but I'll say swim team. Anything you like. If long as it doesn't cost me money.

Depending on the size of your pool (how many gallons of water) The first thing I do after filling the pool is to add Pool Shock. The pool is ready for use. The next day, test the water, with test strips (pH, alkalinity, and free chlorine) the test strip will tell you what you need to add to the water. (Chlorine, pH plus, pH minus,). Also I add weekly Algaecide (because we live in a very hot, humid area). You should use pool shock weekly, but follow the directions on the containers. HAVE FUN!

your kidding right, in water??  All you would end up with is very strong bleach if you use chlorine.  Both are used in keeping pools (which are full of water) from having molds and other harmful substances.  Ignite, don't make me laugh.  \n\nThe line of elements that react violently with water is Sodium, Potassium, Rubidium, Cesium, and Francium.  Each reaction is stronger as you head down the periodic table.

I not sure about this. Water has a lot of Weight. Ever see those "Slinky" toys. You not want you Pool to get the same idea as a "Slinky". Maybe you could Build Up the ground to get it level? Maybe a few Landscaping Timbers or even rocks laid nice and fill in to get it more level. I have wanted to do the same as you, but, with the slope I not think it will work, hate to spend money to watch it Collapse and be Ruined.\nQ: Where (and on what surfaces) can I safely and successfully set up my Simple-Set pool?\nA: For proper pool functionality and your safety the pool MUST be set up on an extremely flat, level, and stable surface. Suitable surfaces include grass, compacted earth, concrete, or pavement. Use of a ground cloth, if provided, is always recommended and is REQUIRED if the pool is to be set up on concrete or pavement. Under NO CIRCUMSTANCES should the pool be set-up on wooden decks or other wooden surfaces, or on ground that is muddy or subject to shifting. DO NOT USE SAND to level the ground, as it is also subject to shifting under the weight of the pool. Do not attempt to 'jack up' the pool on any type of frame, support, or riser(s), as this will cause the pool to collapse!

Halite is the same thing as rock salt. This is what is used.

The chemicals are probably different from the other pools you have been in and you are sensitive to them.

Swimming in WARM salt water is beneficial. Most of the time that means a warm water salt pool rather than the ocean.

It sounds like you're going to be doing salt water fishing.  I'd suggest you get a rig with a heavy weight - like a 7 oz (it's shaped like a pyramid), and attach it to a rig that has 2 leaders, each with a small, single hook.  Bait the rig with blood worms, and fish it off the bottom.  You'll catch all kinds of stuff.  This time of year, you should be able to catch a bunch of croaker up there, maybe even some rockfish.

Well you could try to do the firefighter thing but it may just be easier to get a long hose and find someway to attach it to the edge of the pool and let it fill up on it's own then add the chemicals and chlorine and all of that stuff let it sit for a day or two and you have a pool full of water to play Marko-Polo

Uh, there is the Dead Sea. But I think it is drying up.\nYou can try Salt Lake, in Utah US.\n\nThese are saltwater lakes with high concentrations of salt.
