Swimming Pool Owners' Guide to Water Chemistry

Welcome...

...to the first independent, non-commercial site for those with private domestic swimming pools. This site is your virtual pool minder.

Its main purpose is to help you maintain your swimming pool water in tip-top condition and assist you in sorting out any water chemistry or other problems that may arise. The approach is user-friendly, with links to explain technical terms in every day language where necessary. A section has been included to give helpful information for those thinking of buying their own swimming pool.
