Pool stain may require an expert solution
Question: We bought our pool home from an out-of-town investor. We have been following the pool company's instructions to maintain water chemistry. The pool is quartz aggregate.
After several months, we noticed white blotchy areas on the pool bottom and sides. The pool company had the interior installer examine the pool. He suggested a large quantity of stain remover and a metal controller along with frequent brushing for a couple weeks. We followed his directions and this did nothing.
His next recommendation was to add 6 gallons of muriatic acid and a quart of Metal Control with the pump running constantly and 1 gallon of acid every four or five days.
