We are in the process of buying a pool. We told the pool guy we have iron in our water and he said we might want to think about having "Pool ready" water trucked in for the initial fill and then each year at opening. He has nothing to gain and could have just sold me a bunch of chemicals instead.
Soothe question is, what do we do about the iron in the water? Or is this not even an issue except for large fills. Meaning that periodic filling to compensate for evaporation is no big deal, or will it eventually cause staining and other nasty issues? We have hardness of 27 grains and iron level of almost 3 ppm. We are on city water but these are the same numbers from the city and water testing.
Thanks! I'm just feeling a little nervous to do this right the first time.
