So, what exactly is chlorine, and which is the best type of chlorine for your pool? Chemistry expert Bob Lowry goes over each type of chlorine for you and its pros and cons. 

Bob Lowry is the author of over 23 books but this has to be one of his most relevant and shortest books coming in at just 19 pages thick. But it is packed with so many essentials on residential pool chemistry that you will want a copy to carry in your service truck. Bob Lowry has been in the industry for over 47 years and is the Lead Consultant at Lowry Consulting Group, leads the Pool Chemistry Training Institute, and has created the Certified Residential Pool & Spa Certification Program.

Experts say doing something for 30-days will build a habit. I think building a habit or a routine is really important when it comes to your pool route. Mistakes can be avoided and sleepless nights put to rest worrying if you added chlorine at your last stop today. By developing a routine you will get through your day worry-free.
