What to say to my pool guy
I’m in Texas, 18000 gallon fiberglass in ground pool. This will be my third summer with a pool, I maintained it myself using TFP and the pool math app for the first year but grad school/full time work made it difficult to keep up. My wife found and hired a pool guy about a year and a half ago and all the communication has gone through her, no big issues, water looked clean. I was doing some spring cleaning and found my Taylor test kit and was shocked at the values I saw. pH was under 7, FC 0.4, TC 0.2, TA 0, CH was almost 1000, and CYA was over 200! I asked my wife if he mentioned any issues and his latest report from the day before said pH 7.4, TA 50, no other values, no issues. I texted him and he said “I’ve been having trouble keeping the alkaline up” and “I keep the CYA high on fiberglass pools to hold the chlorine in them.” He said he didn’t have anyone available to come out so I added baking soda to help the pH and I got some sediment, which my pool robot picked up and I noticed a blue tint to my filters. How should I approach my pool guy on Wednesday to address my concerns? Thanks in advance!
