I use Bleach for chlorine, i stick to BBB. Not may people use the pool every day, its just a family pool, but how many people use the pool is in my case is not such a bit of a case, i believe, since i check my chlorine chemistry every day and also when someone uses the pool, we manually switch...

My pool is 31000 liters and my pump is doing 15500 liters/hour (1hp - 0.75kw), at least thats what it says in its label. In summer the pool gets direct sun from 9.00 hours till 18.00 hours, so thats 9 hours of sun. This gets the pool temperature from 11 Celsius in winter to 31 or 32 Celsius in...

The pool is now at normal Chlorine and ph levels and it is crystal clear. Thanks for all the support

ok, the stains are all gone. The Ascorbic acid arrived today. Since the chlorine was today at zero levels, the ph was dropped from 7.6 to 7.2 so i did an AA treatment. After an hour or so, i add the squesterant. I now left my pump running, but for how long since i see no visual change since...

I am still waiting for my AA to arrive ( 2 weeks now ) and i have done no other treatment to my pool other than keeping my Free Chlorine levels to 1 to 2 ppm and the ph to 7.2 but i have notice that the brownish stains are 90% gone. This is all good for me, but whats the reason for this stain cure?

Thanks for the information :shock: Point understood :goodjob:

Hi, i have read this forum post it-can-happen-to-anyone-zero-chlorine-cya-ammonia-t10974.html and i posted the same here for your opinions. "hi, i am new to this forum and i have a pool for a second season. The pool in my new house ( bought used ) was operating for 4 to five years. The CYA was...

Re: It Can Happen to Anyone - Zero Chlorine, CYA-->Ammonia hi, i am new to this forum and i have a pool for a second season. The pool in my new house ( bought used ) was operating for 4 to five years. The CYA was way high so i did a water change. Now i have stains :( Anyway, my question is...

Ok, i have the sequestrant now, but not yet the ascorbic acid. The free chlorine is still around 3ppm since it was last shocked, before i knew all these steps to do, so i need to wait till chlorine reads zero. I have 2 procedure questions and a water test equipment advice. 1.Shall i WAIT so i...

Ok, i lowered the ph and wait till my ascorbic acid arrives. I noticed that when i placed the acid in the skimmer and the filter in circulation mode, the jets cleared on the opening of the jet. I have no idea what a Sequestrant is and where to find it in my country. The only specialist shop...

I cant find any ascorbic acid in any shope here. Only vitamine c but it is very expensive for a 500gr I have found to import from germany, but i see now the stain is moving to the vinyl liner now. Any advice? i will have the ascorbic acid in a week or so. My pool is 31000 liters. Are 500gr ok...

Ok, so i better get some AA and do what it says at Ascorbic Treatment to rid Pool of metal stains. About 500gr will do the trick since all the plastics in the pool are brown. Will it affect afterwards the quality of the pool water? But how i got it? Is it due to the algicide with copper the...

Re: What did I do? Brownish stains on plastic stairs and jet I did the vitamine C tests and after a wile the stain cleared in the spot the vitamin c was placed.

I have recently changed the water of my pool, 31000 litters. I added ph + to take it to normal levels. The pool guy gave me some liquid that he said is algiside with copper and he told me to place it in the pool, which i did. The pool, after a weeks time and all levels were in normal range the...

My pool is a 35000 to 37000 ltr. With my calculations for the size of my pool and pump size, for every 4 pump hours it makes 3 times pool water circulation. So i stick to 4 hours a day working pump times but spit to 4 time zones of an hour each during the day. No need to run at night as there is...
