Hello to all in Andalucia 

Can anybody recommend a person or company that can fill my swimming pool with drinking water.  (NO RIP OFF MERCHANTS).  Please post so I can check them out.      Many thanks.      Mr Lowe

Hi, why does it need to be drinking water?

You will find it cheaper to fill the pool from your Galasa supply rather than via a tanker. Make sure you contact Galasa and let them know before filling the pool.

Galasa or whoever you get the bill from is the water supplier.

There is a risk that if you fill your pool they may think you have a major leak due to the sudden high increase in consumption

Always re-fill ours from the tap, never had an issue and think you'll find it cheaper doing it that way.

Thanks for reply…But I live in Cantoria and the water here is very bad with Calcium. So that defeats the objective.   Drinking water is a better bet.

It’s false economy using tap water, it will cost you more in the long run when you finish up having to have your pool re-grouted

Get ready with the Chorine 

You will be using a lot especially when it's sunny

33 euros for shock going up to 39 euros per tub before the end of the year.

Don't buy your chemicals from the local pool shop I buy my multi action tablets from Vera Commercial at 26.40 a tub if your chlorine is low use liquid chlorine to bring it up. I buy my chlorine at about 18 Euros for 25 litres
