This is my 3rd summer with my pool, and i made the mistake of not covering it last fall and I had a real mess this spring. I don't know if that has anything to do with my current problem.
I had some brownish/green 'growth' around the perimeter of my pool, at the base of the wall and the floor. I got a brush out and scrubbed it off, it came off quite easy.
Then we got 2 inches of rain, and the algae / iron ring came back,, i scrubbed it back and it went away. We had some big rains again and now its back.
I just added 2 gal of bleach and tomorrow I am going to scrub it again, is it my water? Lots of rust?
I keep the chlorine about 3-4ppm,, the PH was high, but I got that under control last week with some muratic acid & aerate. I need to get a new TF1000 water test kit as my plastic case is cracking, I am out of CYA reseurgent and just about out of FC & PH dye.
