I am going to drain my pool in late March or early April. I am going to stain treat with ascorbic acid before draining and changing out filter cartridges. Do I also need to add Metal Free and circulate before draining?
 
If my ph is lower than 7.2 will the ascorbic acid work as well? I am going to drain after stain treating and I hate to waste more chemicals on bad water. My ph right now is 6.8.

6.8 is fine for the AA treatment.
