Hi,
I have an above ground pool and had the liner replaced recently. After refilling it I realized some of the hoses were leaking. The pool sat idle for a few days before I replaced the hoses. Then after I started running the filter again, I noticed an oil slick on the surface that smells of petroleum. No one swanm in the pool.
I assume that it's the pump, perhaps the seal overheated and the lubricant/grease is in the pool water? What do I do? Replace the filter I guess? Drain the pool, but what about the grease? do I have to wipe the liner---will enzymes actually work to dissolve the oily residue?
I am so frustrated now.
Thanks
