Okay
So our newly rennovated pool has been wet for 4 weeks & 2 days. Basically, after 2 weeks & 2 days of water in the pool, he dumped in 550 pounds of salt. After 2 weeks, I checked the pool water with the TFP-100 test kit and some salt test strips and found the glaring error. I have drained off half the pool and gotten the salt level down to 3,100ppm.
I am now noticing an apparent "leeching" of the masonry on the oklahoma flagstone on our submerged decking/seats. Here is a pic of our tanning seat with its dark brown grout.....[attachment=1:24k4sp6a]IMG_0842-3.jpg[/attachment:24k4sp6a]
Here is a pic of our love seat with its "bleached grout"....?[attachment=0:24k4sp6a]IMG_0843-2.jpg[/attachment:24k4sp6a]
Am I correct to hope that they simply didn't seal the love seat masonry or do you think something worse is going on here resulting from the poor care he gave during the pool break-in
