Hello and welcome to my new pool blog. My name is William and I live with my wife and our pet cats in a small town in Eastern Australia. I worked very hard last year and saved a lot of money so we could have a new pool installed on our property. We had a fantastic summer of swimming in it. It was a lot of fun. However, I recently noticed that it was beginning to get cloudy. I had no idea why. My friend who is a pool contractor inspected the pool and explained I needed to add some cleaning chemicals. I decided to start a blog to help others who are having problems with their pools.
