Can an inground pool crack during an earthquake?
Yes, an inground pool can crack during an earthquake due to the ground shifting and the pressure exerted on the pool's structure. The extent of the damage would depend on various factors such as the pool's design, its age, and the intensity of the earthquake. Regular maintenance and ensuring the pool is properly constructed can help reduce the risk of damage.

Which material is better to use in an inground liner pool galvanized steel frame or aluminum frame?
Galvanized steel. It lasts longer and is less affected by chemicals and saltwater if you choose to go that route. I do suggest saltwater. It needs for less maintance than a pure chlorine pool.

I have soapy bubbles on the top of the water in an inground pool I added algaecide yesterday aft What is causing this and how can I get rid of it- bubbles more after contact with H2o?
You have a common problem. You used: 1. An inexpensive algaecide. 2. Overdosed with an inexpensive algaecide 3. Water in pool is "out of balance" Algaecides are not the single answer for algae. You must have your pool balanced> Total Alkalinity, pH , Calcium Hardness, Free chlorine, Combined chlorine, Stabilizer/Cyanuric Acid. If you have an above ground pool you probably do not have an automatic chlorinator which is a good thing to have. I'd go to a reputable swimming pool store that offers water analysis. They might not be all that thrilled to help you. If they offer computerized analysis offer to pay them or tell them you plan to purchase the needed chemicals. If you have an inground pool, shame on you for not using a pool store for your supplies. They can be your best friend when you are in need of help.
Where can you buy pool chlorine for an inground pool in Austin, Texas?

If you want a saltwater pool can you just put salt in and let the pool pump do the rest or do you need to have a saltwater system?
You need a saltwater system. The unit converts the salt (NaCl) to chlorine gas (Cl) within a chamber using electricity then (almost) immediately converts it back again to salt. The cycle is continuous, therefore your pool water is 'sanatized' with chlorine whenever the pool pump is running - just a little bit at a time. Apparently the technology was first adopted in Australia 30+ years ago. I just purchased a unit in Canada for CDN$1750 installed for a 18x36 inground pool.
Everything in your inground pool is good with chemicals but the clorine is locked I have added 1eryt5 bags of shock and the clorine still registered 0 please help you They say the clorine is locked?
Test for Cyanuric Acid, this is what causes "Chlorine Lock" however, usually you have the opposite result. High test readings, with no positive effect. The only way to correct this is to physically drain water from the pool and add new. The best way to avoid this problem in the future is to buy higher grade chlorine and shock. tritonunderwater.com
What is a purple layer of film on the vinyl of your inground pool that you have shocked using agacide?
it is most likely an algae that has been flocked to the bottom by shocking.your chemicals have done there job now it is time to vacuum up the dead algae so it does not start to grow again much like a weed. If you keep your Alkalinity,PH and Chlorine stable you will not have to ad other chemicls with the exception of non-chlorine shock.Remember every extra chemical you add to your pool or spa is providing food for algae. kenny Kummer brody Chemical
Is saltwater or chlorine better?
Saltwater pool versus chlorine poolMy family is in the process of having an inground pool installed. As a matter of fact it was finally filled with water today. I will try and answer your question to the best of my ability. We went with a salt water pool because it is more stable than chlorine. It won't burn you eyes, turn your hair green, etc. You also do not have to add as many chemicals. A bottle of muriatic acid weekly and a 40 pound bag of pool salt every 3 or 4 months. We had an above ground pool before and we had nothing but trouble trying to keep it clean and we spent a bundle on chlorine and all kinds of chemicals to keep the water clear. Anyway I love salt water pools however a salt water pool is still a chlorine pool that is why the salt is added to the water. The best known material for salt water pools Is sodium chloride, this is dissolved in the water and the water is then run through electronic element that separates chlorine out of the salt into the water. a less environmentally harmful system that uses Magnesium chloride and potassium chloride is now also becoming available.
