  I have used this store since 2013. Bill, the owner, is an encyclopedic knowledge base for pools, problems, chemicals, and equipment. Yes I have purchased from NPS before they sold out at times and even Amazon. But the advice and service I've received from Bill and this store has always been spot on and freely given. I have the print out of every water test they have performed for me so I can track changes in my pool. Last week my own testing indicated (I'm still trying to get the hand of doing this myself) I needed acid added. I added the amount indicated by the reading and charts I have pulled from computer. Followed up with their Blue Water Bright liquid to make it sparkle. Worked beautifully! Next morning pool water was super cloudy, tested and it was bonkers! Down to the store frantically with water sample (I'd only been in a couple of days earlier for a test and I hate to abuse that service) and Bill instantly told me the problem and then tested confirming his initial diagnosis. My old pool water had chlorine but it was nor free. Handed me a bag of conditioner and told me it would do the job. When I got home (I did pay for it of course because it is a store) I broadcast it as Bill had carefully instructed. I boosted my variable speed pump to top speed and within 2 to 3 hours my pool was sparking, beautiful clear water with reflections as if diamonds were in it. YES Leslie's prices tend to be higher. But I'm on my 3rd pool (1 in Florida and 2 in NV) and out of all the pool stores I've done business with Bill is the most knowledgeable person I've ever met!

  Most of the pool supply stores are just out to sell you chemicals for your pool. This location does a reasonable job of testing your water, but still attempts to sell you products you do not really need. I use liquid acid, so I come here to buy. I have them run the water test, but for things like CYA, TDS, Total calcium (which by the way is one of the hardest yet most important tests to get accurate for stable clear water especially here in Las Vegas) they are all over the map. For all of my other chemical needs, since liquid muriatic acid cannot be shipped reasonably, I purchase online at various online stores (usually Amazon) for better products and better pricing. Do not purchase muriatic acid at local hardware stores, i.e. Lowe's or Home Depot. You need to go to a pool store to get the proper strength.
