Iron test with Vit C - no change. Did remove some old staining not this step and floor. Guess next is salt, chlorine ....

Yeah sequestrant and more recently going to use DE. I don't have or have used magnesium salt. Oddly I was looking at adding in mineral ....not convinced yet on making rhe move.

Will do , will be annoyed if it is after this recent stain clean-up.

Picture today hopefully see more of the step and patch in the pool. You can see yellowish corners and bottom of walls . Another iron check ??

No previous stain mentioned. The pool has overtime about 6 months accumulated stains. Mainly on the pool step, bottom of walls and around jets. I just finished a stain cleaning process, which has removed quite a bit actually. Just these odd areas as shown, in terms of stains, had two companies...

My pool has undergone a number of weeks of recent stain removal. Chemistry is almost balanced and crystal clear water. Stains had progressively got worse over months. Not sure if this was Covid impact, rubbish salt, watered down chemicals, Green coloured acid to name a few. In...

Hi all, i read the article on adding DE to a salt water pool (cup or two) into skimmer to give the filter a boost. Odd question, but what size DE powder. Suppliers i have looked at seem to offer 3 or 4 types. Extra fine to coarse etc.

Hooked up hose to return, mini fountain. CSI 0.08 now reduced PH once already, crrently back at 7.4 will check again next few hours. TA is holding at 125.

Mainly return eyeballs upwards, kids playing ....was brainstorming options without chemicals... ideally cheap and easy

Not sure on fill water yet....ill do that as next test. I do want to reduce TA but aeration is proving very slow and PH is not really moving from 7.4 yet...
