Hello, we are in the process of buying a house and should we be concerned about ASR? Here is a picture that the inspector was concerned about. This would be my first pool to own. What are your thoughts?

It may be ASR, but I don't think so, ASR shows as multiple variegated cracks in the pool surface.

We had and expert come out and view the pool and couldn’t determine if it was asr so they recommended a core sample to determine if it is asr. Currently it’s a big issue right now in Austin and tough on what to believe.
