Calcium and LSI in Fiberglass and Vinyl Pools (w/ Tyler Mills)
Does calcium hardness still matter for fiberglass and vinyl liner pools? Does the LSI still matter? Tyler and Eric discuss the importance of both, especially in non-cement pools. Chalky white discoloration of fiberglass pools and fading vinyl liners are just some of the symptoms of not having enough calcium hardness to balance the LSI year-round.
