Doheny's Ultimate Pool Opening Start-Up Kit | Made in USA | Includes Metal Out, Algae Control, Clarifier & Super Shock | Prevents Stains, Rust & Scale | Free 10-Pack Test Strips | Pro-Grade Chemicals

I have been buying start up kits. closing kits, chlorine and several other chemicals as needed for years along with winter covers/water bags. Everything arrives within a day or two and my pool afterwards is maintenance free for the most part. Except for the vacuuming of course..

This kit includes all you need to open your pool with clean, clear water. Makes life easy when you have the right products in the right amounts you need to get swimming season started. Will definitely keep buying this and the closing kit.

This Start up Kit is the complete package! Excellent step by step instructions to follow, with excellent results. This product is just as shown and works great! I would highly recommend this.

We got tired of the local pool store. Opened the pool on our own this year with Doheny's and we have perfect water in only a matter of days. Thanks Doheny's!!!

This startup kit provides everything one needs to get their pool opened the right way. I count on Dohenny every Spring and am always completely satisfied.

Always work with usually just what is in the package. I have used Doheny products for many years always with great results. The ease of ordering online and getting it usually next day is fantastic service.

This opening kit is the perfect size and it comes with all needed chemicals. The directions were easy to understand and clear. It made the job of opening my above ground pool easier.

Very strict return policy and vague chemical instructions. Do not buy this pool starter pack unless you are 100% sure you will keep it. Because it contains shock, the seller will not allow returns or refunds at all—even on a completely unopened, sealed box, which in my case was the situation because I no longer needed it. On top of that, the chemical instructions are terrible for smaller pools. It tells you to use the entire bag (which covers up to 4,400 gallons), but gives no instructions on how to safely proportion it for a smaller 10 ftx30 ft (1,800-gallon) pool. Bad policy and vague instructions. For reference, dumping a full 1 lb bag of shock (standard size) into an 1,800-gallon pool will spike your chlorine levels way too high and could bleach or damage your liner. The standard rule of thumb for regular pool shock is about 2 ounces (by weight) per 1,000 gallons. It seems dangerous especially to your skin.

I used the kit as it said my pool stayed green when I contacted dohenys was told to get more algaecide! Really I was super disappointed not ever buying or referring anyone again

Listed as pool startup chemicals, when none of the required balancing chemicals are even in the package, this should be listed as POOL RENEWAL PACKAGE or something to explain this is for a dirty pool and not for opening a new pool.
