At least four LQ users reported their pools are filled with well water and they don’t have any WS (calcium deposits or whatever) whatsoever.
Perhaps this is not just a coincidence. Although four is by no means a large enough number for a good statistical analysis, if well water were not an issue then according to the poll's results (33% usres affected by WS) we could expect at least one of these four users to have WS. So maybe this is significant. Marine aquarium articles such as this suggest that magnesium may inhibit calcium scaling.
Can well water LQ users please test their water for magnesium, and post the results? Maybe we can solve the WS issue by adding magnesium. This should be easier and less expensive than adding borates, which hasn't been proven yet to be a working solution.
