So it seems that I'm starting to win my battle against the calcium scale deposits I found on opening my pool.
I've kept the pH around 7.2 for the last week, added 2 jugs of ScaleTec and have been brushing with a stainless steel brush at least once a day. The scale is starting to release from the surfaces now.
My question is that now that I'm managing to get it off, I have a ton of loose scale siting at the bottom off the pool. Is this stuff ok to vacuum up, our will it damage the filter? Would I be better of using my robotic vacuum?
Also, now that it's coming off, my CHi is going through the roof...450 when I chief out earlier today. Should I adjust this as I go, or wait until the removal process is over with and then adjust?
Thanks in advance for the help...this forum is a lifesaver!
