Jim, Your reply sent me down a different path where I eventually diagnosed and repaired the problem. I did not have a consistent 240V at the timer input. I did at the breaker so that lead me to believe there was a wiring problem somewhere along the way. I started to test the wiring and noticed...

3 year old Hayward Super II pool pump went out after intermittently turning itself off due to overheating for a month. Pool vacuum booster pump and spa aerator still worked fine. I replaced the Hayward Super II with a Xtreme Power 75035 pool pump from Home Depot trying to save a few $$ because...

MM ordered and on the way. I'll try to keep this updated so those who helped will know what happens.

Thanks, that's good info. The water is only brown when filling the pool. Hopefully, I won't have to do a refill again. - - - Updated - - - Thanks! Small world. I have been following your thread to see the outcome. Did Metal Magic work for you? I already had a case of 12 in my Pool Geek...

Ha! That's the frustrating part, the water is beautiful after it clears up. It sill looks just like it did in my profile pic. Maybe I can paint the plaster a darker color instead of bright white and at least camouflage the stains. - - - Updated - - - No argument here! I tried to give enough...

About to pull what is left of my hair out. I've read many TFP threads on staining and it appears there are varying opinions on what to do for each poster. I would like to see the pros thoughts on what to do before wasting more money and time. Last October we had the plaster acid washed because...

Thank you

Thank you. Read it a few times before, but it's always good to re read. However, I don't see the answer to being "controlled by chemistry" as stated in the quote? Please point out where I am missing the obvious. in the Pool School - Pool Stains information.

Can you elaborate about being controlled by chemistry?

Thanks for the reply.I have tried Wally World. What I should have said is it is hard to find fresh gallons at a reasonable price.
