Borates also work with salt pools. The combination works very well. I've noticed though the pH can drift a bit high sometimes, but pool acid (typically muriatic) is cheap. As for poolRx, you can buy that copper and zinc salt and add them yourself if you wish. CuSO4 is quite cheap, but don't overdo it, too much copper in the water isn't good either (but can be easily tested for). 1 ppm seems to be a good number to help keep the algae at bay, and it too doesn't evaporate or get used up much.
HI DAVID I HAVE A QUESTION FOR U I KEEP GETTING IRON STAINS IN FIBERGLASS POOLI USE VITAMIN C AND STAINS GO AWAY BUT MY CULATOR BAG TURNS BLUE SAYING COPPER IS IN WATER BUT I THOUGHT THE VIT C WOULDNT WORK ON COPPER ANY SUGGESTIONS ON HOW I CAN GET RID OF ALL METALS THIS STARTD LAST YEAR AND IT SEEMS TO DO IT AFTER I TOP OFF WATER PLEASE HELP THANK U
Hello David, thank you for all you do for the industry. I’m using the Pool RX but I’m worried about turning light and chemically colored hair green for pool guest, please advise what to do to prevent this from ever happening?
As long as the chlorine is below 5 ppm during the 1st week you install it their is no danger of swimmers getting green hair. After the 1st week the minerals will all be dissolved.
HASA has raised their liquid chlorine prices higher than the inflation rate by my calculations. Chlorine enhancers are a smart thing to use!
HASA sucks. They've been taking advantage of us. Use a competitor if possible.
@@dh8600 They appear to be the only game in town for me. Of course, that's the problem. Anything else around here is poorly stored and not 12.5%.
Thanks for this video and all your others! I am learning so much from you. Thanks again!
Thank you. I always find your YT so helpful, whether I need a specific piece of information or something I can improve upon.

Longtime pool guy here.
Please have your pool water tested for phosphates before you buy expensive phosphate removing products. I'll leave it at that.

Culator has a pre-fill filter. You may want to get one.
What do you use to clean the pool tile
Just tile soap. If you have scum build up I have used Perfect Weekly Enzyme on a sponge - works well.
