Home / Pool Stains and Scaling – The Importance of Water Balance
Stains and scaling can be caused by not keeping your swimming pool water balance, which means keeping calcium, pH, and total alkalinity at the proper levels. Tile and water line cleaners as well as enzymes help remove scale, grime, oils and other materials that can float on top of your swimming pool water. They help clean those unsightly lines that can form on your swimming pool tile, vinyl liner or even your swimming pool steps.
Rust and scale remover also helps in preventing stains and scaling. We have products called Stain Free and Scale Free. It is especially important to use in areas that have high levels of minerals and metals in the water and areas where consumers are filling their swimming pools with well water. It is very important that you have your pH levels in the proper range when using this product for it to work effectively.
Hardness increaser helps to prevent staining of swimming pool surfaces caused by low hardness (which is calcium) levels. It is important to use hardness increaser to prevent your pool water from becoming corrosive, which can cause damage to your swimming pool heaters and pumps. Parrot Bay Pools & Spas is here to help you with your water balancing concerns.
