This above-ground pool was proving that you didn’t need a massive backyard pool to create clean, clear, professionally maintained water.

We were regularly testing the chlorine, pH, and alkalinity while using upgraded circulation, a larger cartridge filter, a proper surface skimmer, and a suction-side pool cleaner.

We were even using a simple bottle as a homemade float to keep the cleaner from rolling onto its back and getting stuck—which was looking a little unusual, but was working perfectly.

The custom rock fountain wasn’t only adding a relaxing sound, either. It was creating movement and aeration while becoming part of the overall water-management system.

The real secret wasn’t one expensive chemical or one piece of equipment. It was having the testing, circulation, filtration, and cleaning systems all working together.
