Hi All -
Have not posted since my pool start up, but just finished my second summer in my pool, and I am noticing a yellowing of many of my white plastic pool components. Correct me if I’m wrong, but water chemistry has been pretty decent, aside from an upwardly drifting pH, that I knock down with MA.
Some degree of discoloration wouldn’t surprise me, but this seems to have been a pretty quick onset, starting about 3-4 mos ago, and getting worse. Any thoughts on cause or if I should be concerned? I noticed it first in my robot vacuum basket and its filter screens, where it is the most drastic, but it is also occurring in my skimmers (you can literally see a yellow water line) and most recently I noticed on my main drains when brushing (no pic of those). Any observations would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Matt G
