Q: Will shock clear a cloudy pool?

• <div><p>Shock can clear a cloudy pool if the problem is insufficient free chlorine or an accumulation of chloramines from &ldquo;spent&rdquo; chlorine. However, it can make the issue worse if a high level of chlorine or a pH imbalance is the root cause of the problem. Test your pool water before treating the cloudiness to ensure you&rsquo;re making the right call.</p></div>

Q: What is the difference between pool coping and decking?

• <div><p>Coping is the material that lines the perimeter of a pool and seals the transition between the top of the pool wall and the water. Decking surrounds the poolscape and extends far beyond the water's edge to provide a safe walking and lounging area. In short, coping is the border between the decking and the pool itself.</p></div>

Q: How much chlorine do I add to my pool for the first time?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/gallons-in-pool-volume-calculator.htm">number of gallons in your pool</a> will determine how much chlorine you&rsquo;ll need to add to your pool for the first time. Chlorine levels should fall between 1 and 3 ppm. It's crucial to read the instructions on your chlorine packet to determine the number of tablets to put in the water based on your pool's capacity.</p></div>

Q: What are the proper chemical levels for a pool?

• <div><p>Pool chemical levels should include a pH between 7.4 and 7.6, alkalinity between 80 to 120 ppm, and chlorine from 1 to 3 ppm. The size and type of your pool determine additional chemical levels, such as stabilizers and pool shock, but you can get to know these numbers using our <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/pool-maintenance-101.htm">pool maintenance 101 guide</a>.</p></div>

Install went nice and smooth. It didn't take long to get the fence built at all. It took longer than they anticipated because of the rocky ground, but I had warned them about that. It turned out okay, but not great. Some of the details/finishing touches aren't there. They cracked over 25 pickets...
