The Journal of the Swimming Pool and Spa Industry is a
peer-reviewed research and educational journal for those interested in sharing
technical data and for those wishing to expand their knowledge of swimming
pool chemistry and other aspects of aquatics, facility maintenance, and
the evaluation of new products.
The JSPSI was published originally from 1995 to 2004, in
hard copy and available by subscription. Those issues (Volumes 1 through 5)
are now being provided here online. Also, starting later this year the Journal
will resume publication as an online annual. Although still peer-reviewed and
of the same high quality as before, the journal will now be available free of charge.

Since these edited and revised versions are more up-to-date, the pdf files linked
here are from the newer book.
