Hello everyone! I live in the Phoenix area. We have a heat pump and a cover on our pool so that we can use it even in the winter months. I’m having trouble with water from the pool resting on top of the cover, the water evaporates, leaving a lot of calcium/sodium (I believe) residue on top of the cover. When I wind up my cover to use the pool, all that “sediment” falls right into the pool. I believe this causes my CH to skyrocket, creating a never-ending cycle of high CH. I know I need to drain a lot of water to bring CH down. We are beginning our 8th year of having our pool, and I have never had algae (thanks to TFP!), I clean my filter cartridges regularly and have not had to replace the original ones, and I have also never done a complete water change, have only changed 1/4-1/3 of the water to try to bring CH down. I would love any insight you all have with how to end this cycle of high CH, how to stop the large amounts of residue on my pool cover due to evaporation, and finally should I do a complete water replacement?
