Q: Can I use chlorine tablets in a salt water pool?

• <div><p>Yes, you can use chlorine tablets in a salt water pool. It is not the standard recommended practice, but if your pool needs more chlorine, adding tablets can help temporarily fix the problem. Only add as many tablets as needed to keep your chlorine level around three parts per million. After adding the tablets, test your water to determine the chlorine content.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take to install a semi-inground pool?

• <div><p>Your contractor will need several days to several weeks as far as a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-does-it-take-build-pool.htm">timeline to install your semi-inground pool</a> goes. Adapting an aboveground pool to be semi-inground by excavating and partially burying the liner, for example, will only take three to five days, while installing an in-ground pool with a poured concrete liner and building up the land around it will require several weeks. Keep in mind that the process of hiring a pool contractor and applying for permits can add several additional weeks to the total timeline. </p></div>

Q: Should air come out of my pool jets?

• <div><p>No, pool jets should not have air coming out. While it&rsquo;s a common problem, making it seem like air coming out is the norm, bubbling pool jets are a sign of loose bearings or fittings, or low water levels. You should get to the bottom of your jets releasing air bubbles because it could be a sign that there&rsquo;s air entering the pump, which can shorten the lifespan of your pump or lead to costly repairs.</p></div>

Q: Is pool pH important?

• <div><p>Yes. A pool pH too high may result in a rash, red, or stinging eyes for swimmers. It means chlorine isn't as abundant as it needs to be to neutralize germs. A pH that is too low means the water is too acidic, which can cause similar bodily irritation and damage to your pool's lining and the surrounding plaster, stone, or tile.</p></div>

Q: How long does a fiberglass pool take to install?

• <div><p>The amount of time your fiberglass pool project will take depends on the size of the pool and whether you are installing add-ons like decking and landscaping. Overall, you should expect it to take four to six weeks to install. If you are dreaming of summer pool parties, make sure to budget enough time into the installation schedule to have your pool up and running in time for the swimming season.</p></div>
