... will it harm my vinyl? should i vacuum it up? it has all accumulated as lines in the deep end. the directions said to scatter it over the water surface but now reading posts on this board that might not have been such a good idea. help please.
How fast did your pour it in? It should not cause any appreciable pressure increase unless something is not working properly. None of my customers have ever reported a problem from pouring it in the skimmer in either an IG or UG pool. Even customerss with Intex popups with their vastly undersized filters have not had problems. Also, the majority of pool chemical companies tell you to pour it in the skimmer right on the container. You DO want to take out the skimmer basket when you pour it in since you want it to go right into the filter and not sit in the skimmer basket. Perhaps that was your error?tmm said:I was told not to pour it in without a sock. When I put it in the skimmer it shot my pressure up so high I didnt like it. Just shows there are many ways to do it, just find one your comfortable with!! Tina
