Weird staining?

[Bafrye]

I was hoping this would go away with some brushing, but it doesn’t seem to be… any thoughts? It’s at the deep end at our floor drain. (We do know that this will be our last season before we need the pool re-finished. (Got a few estimates last year. wish we had an inspection on the pool too when we purchased, as this is only our second year.)

If you are replastering the pool within a year why bother fooling with the stain?

It is probably metals stain - iron or copper.

hhm. do you get a lot of leaves piled up on the drain area? It could be stains from tannins. Have you tried IDing the stain? The link Allen posted has some stain testing suggestions so you can figure out what it is.

I really was just hoping it didn’t mean there was any kind of leakage - now that the pool has been running for 2 weeks, I have seen no change in water level? So I know that isn’t the case. I’ll check out the link though. Thank you!
