Thanks for your response. Yes, I read and followed that thread for my AA treatment. Just trying to get the next steps right. I also added my pool info to my siggy. :) Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using Tapatalk

Here are pics of the pool tonight. The water LOOKS good (maybe the tiniest bit cloudy)...but it looked good when we got the staining, too. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using Tapatalk

Hi. We've had our pool for about a year. Over the last few weeks we started getting brown stains. After testing with Vitamin C, we knew it needed an ascorbic acid treatment which worked perfectly (on 7/5). We followed it with a chelator the next day. Today we tested the water and here are...

Will do. Thanks. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using Tapatalk

This just happened. What needs to be done to repair it? Our pool is just over a year old. I have very little faith that my pool builder will even return my text about it. He was miserable to work with...our small, no-frills pool took 6 months to complete. Also, our midnight blue Diamond...

I don't think so. It wasn't yellow at all. I'm in Arkansas and the pollen had mostly all fallen before we finished thr pool. I should have taken pics. If I see it again, I will.

Thanks!

Okay. I'll do that. I don't have a recommended test kit yet. I need to order one this week.

Our pool build just wrapped up about 3 weeks ago. I got in tonight for the first time and noticed a white buildup on the waterline tiles. It had a rubbery feel and came off fairly easily when I rubbed it with my fingers. What was it? Calcium?

That's my concern, too. I texted him and asked that (if he had the electrician scheduled for Wed since he's plastering tomorrow) at 8:30 this morning and he hasn't responded.

I should add that my paranoia is fueled by an issue that we had with our decking. He didn't measure correctly (or at all) and poured too much. He wanted us to pay the overage even though it was his mistake. We agreed to pay about half ($700), but it left a bad taste in my mouth and some trust...
