Calcium build up on liner


Recommended Posts

Ok guys, LONG post sorry, Fairly new pool owner, this is the third year for our pool and we just took the cover off last week. (Its not pretty) The first year we were all chlorine, last year we converted to salt so we had some adjusting to get use to that, we did shock the pool before we closed it last year and I guess did not check the PH afterwards and closed it (Amateur pool owners here… Insert facepalm emoji) PH was VERY high when we checked it. SOOO when we took the cover off, got the pump running, we always vacuum first to get everything off the liner, but noticed there was a scale on the bottom that wasn’t going anywhere.. Calcium??? Im guessing?? Its pretty bad. First pic is our pool last year, second is the pool this year with the scale on the bottom of the liner AFTER it was vacuumed, third pic is what the PH was when we checked it this year when we took cover off. … We did get the PH down to about 6.8 and all other levels are good as well now, but my questions is, Did I ruin my liner?? It’s a big pool, 50,000 gallons and that liner alone is over 3 grand here in MO! How do I get this off??? HELP!! I have been brushing the bottom, but its on there pretty good, will a scale free remover help this?? Or is it too bad??
