Hi Everyone,
I've been lurking here for a few weeks after stumbling upon this site while trying to understand the breakpoint chlorination section in my Taylor test kit manual.
I have since adopted the TFP way, completing my first SLAM about 10 days ago and finally solving the mystery of why my filter kept plugging up all last season, despite clear(ish) water. Spoiler alert: it was algae.
Anyway, I noticed when I opened the pool this year that my liner has a couple of reddish-brown stains on it, the bigger about the size of a quarter.
Can anyone advise what would have caused this? Until this year we used cal-hypo to shock weekly, and the stains are as far from the deck as possible, so this area doesn't get brushed as well as the rest of the pool. Could cal-hypo crystals cause this? Is there a way to remove them?
Thanks in advance for your help.
