So...
The pool has been open for a week, crystal clear water and the chemistry was absolutely perfect. I came home today and discovered one of the hoses my hubby hooked up, popped off and was draining the water from the pool (from the heater). The amount drained was about 4-5 inches and the level is below the skimmer. Less than two weeks ago, we had the pool filled when I opened it.
So...we aren't expecting rain here in MI for at least a week and a half and unless I call the guy to come out and deliver 4-6 inches of water, the only other alternative is to use the well water because we aren't expecting rain for quite some time. I suspect the iron content in the well water is pretty high.
Besides calling the guy out for 160 bucks, can I do something specific to the well water to be able to use it in my pool, without having years of headaches and spending more money and having screwed up water? Or...would it be cheaper in the long run to just pay to have the water delivered again vs what needs to be done to use the well water.
