I am planning on buying a lay-z-spa to use for the delivery. Because my last baby came so quickly I need the pool to be ready whenever the baby is. I just wanted to know what water treatment was used when you used the rental pools, I don't want to put too harsh of chemicals into the water. By the way congradulations to you and yours.
