A little background. Fiberglass 12000 gallons, with ichlor30. Issue is brown stain on the sides and bottom of pool it just showed up one day along with the sides of the pool have a chalky substance on the side.
We’ve had our pool about 8 yrs now and have had almost NO major issues with our pool it’s like a info commercial set it and forget it just simply enjoy it. This yr not so much. I’ve spent more $$ trying to get rid of the brown stain and chalky sides then I’ve spent in the last two yrs on chemicals for our pool. I’ve tried metal free to get rid of any metal in the water, we’ve tried other stain removers with no luck. I can take a mr clean magic eraser and get 65-70% of it off. The chalky stuff I can take my hand and rub it off and it makes the water cloudy. Now I’ve taken some old towels attached to our pool brush and scrubbed the entire inside of the pool, that seem to remove some but it’s back a few days later. I’m ready to empty the pool acid wash and start over. On a side note I’m enjoying the lake more so than our pool which is really bad. We had a new ichlor 30 installed about 4 weeks ago . since our last aqua rite went south on us and we have been fighting the demand for chlorine since they installed it. Out pool is12000 gallons. The last water sample numbers were ph 8.1; free chlorine 10.9 ( I added 6 gal of liquid chlorine sine the ichlor30 wasn’t producing enough), alk 89; total chlorine 10.9; hardness 207; cy 109; tds 5000; minerals 3782, .. so can anyone help me figure this out. I love to come home grab a beer and go float, cut the grass and then go jump in to cool off. Any help is appreciated. I’m sure I left out tones of info pls just ask and I’ll provide the info if I know it.
