Man, I can't thank you enough for passing on your knowledge to us. Simple, straight-forward, no corny music and graphics. I rarely leave comments but I had to tell you thank you. This is going to help my family and I this summer!
-
I was digging around for information and I could cry. I just spent $200 that I couldn't afford on chemicals and pool hoses. Your explanation is so easy. Thank you!
-
I'm loving these DIY pool videos! All these pool companies forcing us to buy unnecessary EXPENSIVE chemicals is ridiculous...
-
"I'm not a chemist. I'm just a guy with a nice clean pool." Classic! hahaha!
-
Total chlorine or free chlorine?
-
Awesome video man! Thank you so much for posting. I've been trying to understand and use all the different pool chemicals the pool store wants to sell me. It's been overwhelming. You greatly simplified the process in a very good concise video and probably saved me a lot of money.
-
As soon as I clicked on the video I knew this was gonna be some real, easy to digest information. Thank you sir!

This video is fantastic. I’ve had above ground pools for 30 years and I follow these same simple steps. Neighbors spend MUCH more on chemicals, and get worse results. Something the test-kit-chemists fail to tell above-ground owners is that the chemistry is simplified since we have liners (as do some in ground pools). This video of yours should be watched by every above-ground pool owner who wants to spend less time and money…and enjoy their pool more!

Thank you so much! This was the most helpful video I’ve found to show me how to fix my pool problem. I had cloudy greenish tinted water and I tried the clarifier and vacuuming and it just kept right on kicking it all back up as soon as I passed over the debris. I decided to siphon it out manually like you said, bypassing the filter altogether and my pool was CRYSTAL CLEAR within minutes! You’re the best, thank you again!

This is the best video yet, for maintaining an above ground pool, especially for a girl with a tight budget!! I am the only one who swims in my pool, so it can’t be getting THAT dirty!! I LOVE my pool too, and I’ve been just teaching myself how to maintain it by trial and error!! So, thank you for this perfect video!! I’m getting everything you’ve got right there first thing in the am. Thank you!!
-
By far the easiest instructions i have come across yet, Thanks DJ 2Legit!!
-
Thank you Vince for making this so easy and taking the time to make this video. Very helpful.
-
Too cool! I just transitioned over the weekend to using these cheaper supplies thanks to this video and so happy considering how much money I’m going to save on maintaining my pool as a new homeowner. I appreciate your video! Well explained. 👍🏽
-
Just what i needed! Simple, clear instructions and tips! Much appreciated
-
I enjoy watching my robot, clean the pool, but you have great advice on everything else. Keep up the great work, love the video.
-
DJ 2 legit sharing knowledge for new pool owners like myself. This is priceless. If I would give this video 100 likes I would. Thank you!
-
Thanks for this brother. Simple and to the point. Chemistry was never my thing and keeping a clean pool can be overwhelming.
-
Doesn’t the liquid chlorine bleach the lining? And does acid eat it up as well.
-
Can this be used to properly check the levels in a saltwater inground pool?
-
This has helped me tremendously and I need to rely on those strips because the Clorox app has told me I needed so of every one of their products to get it suitable for swimming. The only thing I haven't purchased is the muriatic acid and I need too since my pH is always high. Thank you for sharing this and all of your good information!
