Everything about your pool, in one place, all season long: what changed in the water this week, what the last dose actually did, and whether an upgrade is really worth it.
Replaces the water-test results you cannot compare to last week, the dose you half-remember adding, and the open and close routine you are holding together in your head.

- A new pool owner who wants a clear path from a confusing pile of chemicals to a simple, repeatable routine
- Anyone tired of dosing by guesswork and chasing cloudy or green water

- Owners who want the open and close routine written down, in order, every single time
Who made this
Built by the PoolCareCalculator team from the same water-chemistry formulas and sizing rules the free site's calculators run on, laid out as a workbook to fill in rather than a page to read.

Questions
Does this replace the free site?
No. The free site has the calculators and care guides; the kit is where your own pool's numbers get written down, dated and reused, plus the budget tracker and the season-over-season trend the free pages do not carry.
Does this tell me how much chemical to add?
Only what this site's own free calculators compute, or what a product's own label says. The dose planner is for logging what you added and what happened, so you stop overshooting and dial it in dose by dose.
Does it work for a saltwater pool, not just chlorine?
Yes. The water chemistry log and troubleshooting sheet call out saltwater targets right alongside chlorine ones, and the equipment sizing sheet covers a salt cell the same way it covers a pump or heater.
Will it fit an above-ground pool as well as inground?
Yes. The pool-at-a-glance card and equipment sizing sheet handle both, and the buyer guide's budget tiers run from an above-ground starter kit to a fully automated inground setup.
Is the energy savings math guaranteed?
No. It is arithmetic you run with your own pump wattage, run hours, and electricity rate, framed as "for example, results vary." Nothing here promises a dollar figure.
Does it cover pool safety and drowning prevention?
Yes, with a dedicated safety checklist covering chemical storage and drowning-prevention basics: barriers, alarms, and supervision. It points you to your local codes and the VGB Act for drain covers rather than stating a number that varies by jurisdiction.
What if it does not help?
Use the whole kit for 30 days. If it does not help, the refund form on the contact page gets every dollar back, no questions asked. Refund form.
Printable or fillable on screen?
Both. Print it and write by hand, or open a worksheet PDF in a reader that supports typing and fill it on a tablet or phone.
