Best podcast explaining the science behind water chemistry
Pool pro here- This podcast has some of the best information and explanations on water chemistry that you are going to find out there, free of charge. Eric not only has an extensive understanding and knowledge of water chemistry, but he explains it in a way that almost anyone can understand. You can tell he is passionate about the subject. I must say he has a great voice for podcasts as well. I hope this show gains popularity and recognition because the folks over at Orenda truly do want what is best for your pool water. Their products are also bar none some of the best in the industry. I support Orenda and their mission and will continue to treat our pools with their products. Nobody asked me to leave a review here, but it is well deserved! Thank you Eric and the rest of the Orenda team!
