Know what this is??

Hi,
I’ve been developing “tear drops” of something running down my walls below the water line and very white spots on the floor. Any idea what these are?
Thanks,
Doug

Doug,

Calcium scale

I use a spray bottle with 3 to 1 MA to attack it. One little squirt does not do it. You have to keep at it.

Thanks,

Looks like efflorescence and calcium nodules.

Do you have really wet ground around the pool?

Will a pumice stone work?

Yes, that’s what’s showing above the water. Not the greatest picture, but I’m referring to the “things” on the wall BELOW the water line

No. I think it is what you mention. I used to brush my pool once a week and I haven’t been doing it…….these have showed up around the same time. Think I’ll take pumice and carefully remove them…..then go back to brushing and see what happens
