refilling swimming pool after marcite/plaster job
what is the name of the filtering system, where to purchase, when refilling a swimming
pool after marcite job? the purpose of the filter is just one use, to remove all trace minerals from tap water, it reduces need for chemical balancing as water will be cleaner for the full fillup of about 15,000 gallons can one purchase this from a pool store online, water quality or equipment maker? something that I can attach to end of garden hose and let the pool fill up overnight. thanks. |

It seems incredible to me that a contractor that refinishes a pool can't tell you what the correct procedure is to refill it with water so that the job doesn't get ruined. IMO, they must be one half-assed outfit or is this the first job they ever did? What might need to be done would depend on what is in your water. If it's municipal water, the water utility will have reports that show test results. It;s possible the water is perfectly fine and doesn't need any treatment. If it is muni water, I'd get the report and show it to your contractor and ask them if the water is OK as is. If it's well water, you could ask a local pool store to test it for you and make sure they test if for whatever the genius contractor tells you to look out for, which I suspect would be iron, other minerals. You could also send it out to a lab for testing. Then you'll know what you have and if and how to treat it. I'm no expert on marcite, but it would seem to me that you could fill the pool and apply the appropriate treatments to the pool as it;s being filled using the normal filtering system. |
