Years ago I had a hose crack while on vacation, so now I replace them annually. I have 2 hoses - one from the skimmer to the pump, and the other from the filter back to the discharge into the pool. I buy the high pressure hoses that are grey in color.
This year the return hose from the filter is turning "clear". In other words the grey color is gradually fading. I wonder if this is a problem?
Its an above ground pool, I use straight bleach to sanitize. The water is perfect (meets all the TFP guidelines for chemical properties) and it has been hovering around 80F.
The only change this year was to add a new automatic chlorinator (after the filter and before the discolored discharge.) However, I have had one in that position for 20 years and this never happened before.
Any thought would be appreciated.
