If your hardness is above 400, you will have to dump some of your pool water and replace with fresh to reduce the hardness level. It will not allow a breakdown of calcium, but it does make chlorine more potent. We wrote a post recently about Ionized water, which produces alkaline water in pH of 8.5 – 9.5 leaves such scaling in the water bottles.Hi JR, high pH does create a scaling condition in the water, making it easier for water to precipitate minerals which deposit as scale deposits or crystals in some cases. If your pool's hardness level is above 400, you will have to dump some of your pool's water to reduce it to 350 for a little buffer. Pool was drained, and some parts can be cleaned ok with a pressure washer, but some have a hard white build-up that will not come off with pressure washing.

The liner itself is about 7 years old.Hi Irene, you could use pH decreaser, broadcast over the pool, to drop the pH level to a 6.8 or so, and lower on the surface, as it dissolves. For larger stone or brick walls above the water, preventing efflorescence may require sealing or redirecting the source of water behind the wall.Although the slick surface of vinyl liners can make calcium scale less likely to form, scale can deposit on vinyl liners when conditions are right.As opposed to metal stains on liners, mineral scale can be felt with your hands and feet, rough and ‘scaly’ to the touch. Pool water is permeating through the grout and getting into the back of the zero edge wall and popping the wall tiles loose ? Lots of water line buildup and now getting under water white growths. It can be seen coming out of mortar joints between stones on a raised rock wall, or can drip down onto pool perimeter tile, flowing from the mortar bed beneath pool coping stones.Efflorescence can be slowed by using Clear Sealer on rock or brick faces, and making sure that pool caulking is maintained to keep water out of the expansion joint. This year I have experienced numerous white spots on the wails and floor of the pool. Muriatic Acid can be used on tile and stone, above water level however.We had our pool resurfaced in March of 2019. Take a sample of your pool's water into a pool store and have them test the chemical levels of your pool. Calcium deposits can occur from a high pH and high calcium, or from heavy shocking – knocking the calcium out of solution. The pool is 18000 gallons.

So, I just wanted to see if anyone has had any success with this process or if it is more realistic to start saving for a new liner?How about lowering it to 5.8? Calcium or sodium salts can leave whitish deposits on your pool liner. They sold me two jars of stain clear or something like that. Is this old dead algae that has crusted onto the pool walls and floor, or calcium deposits? Always have two people, one pouring, one hosing – go slow, section by section, pour the deep end ‘bowl’ first, then walls all around, then shallow end floor to deep.

The pool has not been open since sept, so there is no chemicals added yet.

Now in 2020 am seeing calcium deposits over the bottom of the pool. 20,000 gal Salt Water Pool is only 3 years old with glass beads in the plaster.

Remember that 7.0 is neutral, so 6.8 is barely… acidic, and would have little effect on scale. In extreme cases, it can be very rough and snag swimsuits and give the kids a bad case of ‘pool toe’.To remove scale from vinyl pools, you have to be a bit more careful than other pool types, to avoid damaging the vinyl or making it look worse. For removal of plaster scale, generally draining and cleaning is performed, an acid wash. For the tile line, you can also use muriatic acid, diluted and applied with a flower watering can or spray bottle, scrub and rinse. Soon after the filter was replaced the calcium deposits started to appear. How do I remove the calcium from the deep end of the pool?bitz - Your rough surface is probably calcium which probably means your pool's hardness level is too high.

Your swimming pool needs a calcium level of 200-400 ppm. You can find at any home/hardware store.Hello.

The Once you remove pool scale, how do you prevent it from coming back?But even with hard water, you can control the calcium and prevent deposits with good water balance, sequestering agents and a little elbow grease!And in many cases, good water balance and a proper dose of The pool was Replastered in March of 2016. As soon as they are obvious, balance your pool chemicals and remove the deposits. The scale on the bottom of the pool will have to be brushed off with a stiff brush.Hi I have just purchased a house with a indoor pool. I had the manufacture rep come look. Neutralize the waste water with pH increaser, and then pump it out of the pool, quickly. any loose tile may be loosened further, and bits of grout may be blown out, but if one was careful, and the pressure washer not too powerful (<1500 psi) it could be done successfully, without damage to tile or grout, if one was very careful…Is there a grout sealer product that can make the pool side tile grout water proof. Help! Constant temperature changes along with rapid evaporation will cause deposits to settle along the side your pool wall. If I drain 9000 gallons of water my neighbors and the city will freak.

My water tests perfect for hardness and calcium.

You will want to re-test before doing so because the alkalinity should be lower than before. He recommended to the pool surface contractor jacks magic stuff. If the deposits are not removed soon, it can cause permanent damage to the pool surface.
