Thanks for the suggestions. I haven't felt the spot yet, the water is still too cold. The pool is about 5 years old and and the stain just appears in the last month or two.

Okay, I had a different pool store test the water again today because I am not 100% sure I trust the first one. This is what they found TC 1 pH 7.5 TA 85 Calcium Hardness 80 Stabilizer 30 Salt 2700 The Calcium hardness came out way low. They thought this might be the cause of the stain. I...

Okay, I had my water tested this morning and this is what they said. Total Chlorine 1 Salt 2700 Calcium Hardness 200 Cyanuric Acid 30 Total Alkalinity 90 pH 7.6 Phosphates 100 Obviously I have a couple of...

Thanks, I'll post my test results tomorrow. It was completely white and then started turning a little brownish. Could very well be a water flow issue. It is on the opposite side of my steps from the filter return.

Hi, can someone assist me in identifying and possibly removing this stain or deposit. Looks like possibly a calcium scale deposit, not sure. Here are a couple of pictures. The pool is a 20,000 gallon, salt water, gunite with diamond brite plaster. Thanks

LOL. love it. - - - Updated - - - Thanks for the advice. I'm going to kill the power and spray them tonight. I'll pull the cover tomorrow and see what's inside.

Apparently, I have a fair number of wasps that have taken up residency in my control panel. Every time I start punching buttons, they start flying out of the bottom where the wires go into the panel, and also around the gap where my chlorine generator plugs in. I'm not sure how to get rid of...

Yes, as soon as I turn the pump off, the gauge reads 0. I have two return paths. One for the 5 pool returns and one that feeds my deck jets. I can't even imagine how they would get blocked. Just had another thought, I guess I need to check my salt cell for restriction.

I've been hearing kind of a whining sound coming from my pump motor (Jandy Stealth 1.5hp). Initially, I thought it was the motor bearings beginning to fail. However, my filter pressure (Jandy CV340 cartridge), normally about 10psi is up to about 18psi. I cleaned the cartridges and replaced...

Thank you for the advice. I have been using Metal Free, but will change to the Magic Jacks and keep on top of the weekly maintenance dose. The assistance is appreciated. Daron

Okay, thanks for the info. I have obviously been getting bad advice. I was told repeatedly that adding the sequestering agent would cause the metals to be removed by the filter. How can I tell how much I need to add weekly? I have tried adding weekly as per the instructions but still got...

My pool is about 2 1/2 years old and I keep getting recurring staining that I believe is metal. It's a brownish staining that begins showing up on the plastic parts (skimmer baskets, returns, etc.) and then starts tinting my pool walls brownish. I add 2 lbs of ascorbic acid and in about 30...
