Hi there,
I'm a new pool owner and after getting a bunch of help in the forum I am doing an ascorbic acid treatment.
I have zero'ed out my chlorine with a combo of exposure and a little sodium thiosulfate. Brought pH down to 7.2 and have been following this thread. In addition, I am trying out one of these CuLator things to see if I can get the iron out of the water. Would love any advice on how to do that outside of emptying and refilling the pool.
So far so good! I have added a total of 1.5lbs of ascorbic acid over the course of the day. There are a few spots that seem to be a bit more stubborn and if there's any additional advice for handling these, I would welcome it.
Attaching a few videos to show progress. Can anyone help me set my expectations on how much of this will come off and where to call it quits? Thanks!
P.S. Big thanks to @mknauss for pointing me in the right direction!
