I have above ground 3,200 gallon pool. I never had a pool before even as a child am now 56. Any ways I need to know chemicals i need and what type of test kit i need.

Answer:

The best suggestion would be to buy a starter kit that includes a test kit (usually test strips) and the chemicals you are most likely to need along with a book with treatment recommendations and troubleshooting information. If you already have chemicals, try a test strip starter kit that includes a booklet to help with understanding the water chemistry and what to do when something is wrong.
