FLPool Posted July 3, 2006 Report Share Posted July 3, 2006 Hi I have a New , 6 months old pool with a Spa Whirlpool 2 feet above the Pool level. There are Glass bricks that the waterfall splashes as it goes into the pool. These Glass brick deviders are ozzing what appears to be Calcium stains and crusting in between the grout. What am I doing wrong, I am using 3" Trichlor Tablet, the PH I keep at 7.8 Alkalinity around 90, the pool runs 8 hours a day. Thanks for any advice. cjh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is high the high pH you are running will lead to scaling. Also, if you are using test strips for testing get a test done with liquid reagents. Test strips don't have the resolution to balance water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
