Does anyone know the 'rate' at which water is evaporated from the sw/pool in these current months? To me, it just evaporates, so we top it up again. But, how many litres per day? My sw/pool is quite large so I am subjected to a large surface area, which means more evaporation. Has...

Every so often Bali Discovery Tours (hearafer BDT) comes up with this info-letter purporting to bring news of Bali, but being a marketing organ (as in kidney, liver, testes) actually has a slightly schizophrenic function of trying to "inform" us and sell "us" to the the marketing world at the...
