It runs about 400 or so in chemicals. My Dh does all the manual labor for it. We have a 10,000 gallon pool.
I recommend this stuff called Phos-free for the cloudiness.

Breakdown:
100 for 35 lb bucket of chlorine
40 for phosfree
40 Claifierer
80 Soda Ash
80 Ph up
80 Hardness
40 Medal and scale cleaner
I might have forgot something
Also these will last all summer for us. We like to buy in bulk. I do not recommend Walmart chemicals the kind of s#ck!!!

Let me know if you have any other questions

We are paying $275 for the opening which includes the chemicals for the opening. The maintence we do ourselves. It is definitly tricky but once you get the right balance it should be easy.
