Results for "spelling"

Turned from a few embarrassing typos in my pool maintenance logs last month into me questioning every single word I write about my 20,000-gallon inground system. Obviously I know how to spell the basic word "pool," but I want to be thorough and professional in my record-keeping.

When I'm documenting chemical treatments, test results, and communicating with pool service companies, proper spelling and terminology seems important for clear communication. I've noticed that using incorrect terms or spellings can sometimes lead to confusion when discussing maintenance procedures with professionals.

Can someone confirm the correct spelling of "pool" and explain why proper pool terminology matters when dealing with maintenance documentation and professional communications?…more

Staring at another pool full of bored guests for the third time this summer and I'm done letting everyone just float around doing nothing. The pool store mentioned there are tons of games we could play, but I have no idea where to start.

Most of our guests are decent swimmers, and we usually have at least 3-4 people over at a time. I've heard of Marco Polo but that's about it! Are there other classic games we should know about? And what about using pool toys - I see all these floating basketball hoops and volleyball nets but don't know if they're worth it.

Any suggestions for games that would work well for a group? I want to make sure everyone has a great time in our new pool!…more
