Summer Savior: Terry Arko Talks Borates

Tired of chasing pH, battling algae, and burning through chlorine in the summer? In this episode, I talk with Terry Arko of HASA about one of the most underused tools in pool water chemistry: borates. Terry explains how borates can stabilize pH, reduce chlorine demand, improve water clarity, and even make the water feel better. If you’ve been on the fence about using them—or if you’ve never even considered it—this is your guide to what borates can really do for your pools.Send us Fan MailSupport the Pool Guy Podcast Show Sponsors! HASA  REWARDS Apphttps://hasa.com/hasa-appThe Bottom Feeder.
