Can rid-o-rust be added to pool water directly

I would not think so - the label says that it can cause skin and eye burns. It has cautions on the label that it is POISON and contains oxalic acid. Bottom line - NO - DO NOT USE IT IN YOUR POOL!!!

Not without some significant McGyvering. I would recommend you keep using the filters until a part fails or you see the salt water system or sand filter pump on sale somewhere. In the mean time, as long as you clean the pool before putting it away for the winter, the salt water system is much better than harmful chemicals...

You need to use muriatic acid. Can be purchased at a pool supply store or hardware store.

Do not use chemical drain cleaners or additives for septic systems like "Rid-X" or similar products. heres the link http://www.houckaerobic.com/aerobicdosanddonts.html

i used it on an inground pebble finish concrete pool. I had massive stains from metal, especially copper. worked pretty well, but needed repeated treatment. Turned out that the finish was too old to completely clean and pool had to be emptied and refinished, NOT acid washed.

Yes. You have to drill through the top of the pool and secure the brackets with screws. I sealed the screws/holes to prevent rust.

I used the screws that came with it in my saltwater pool. The screws at the top that are not always submerged are rusted slightly, but only surface rust it appears. The screws under the water line look just fine.

Sorry to say the Nomad, itself, cannot help with Rusty Water. Rusty water, if it is in a particle format, can be removed by utilizing a Sediment Filter. Some of our customers use the "Recharger" - (Clear Housing that comes with the Nomad) - as an In-Line Pre-Filtration system for the removal of Sediment or Chlorine, by using the appropriate 2.5"x10" cartridge filter.

I was going to install RO in my house until I found out that RO water eats copper tubing (which was already installed to the icemaker and remote sink) so I went to a micro filter instead. RO removes so much from water that it is extra corrosive to all types of metals. This I learned from an industrial chemical engineer.

No, I dont think so. However, its heavy duty and well made. No rust been, having all summer with salt pool.

No, definitely not. The only way I know of is to replace the pipe(s) causing the rust.

I have the same pool and used the ladder that came with it and had zero rust throughout the summer.

It might work if you are trying to remove a small rust stain from a bobby pin or bbs. My recommendation is do not let acid sit very long on the vinyl. I purchased it to use in a plaster pool and it worked well.

We have an in-ground gunite pool and it did not remove our rust stains which were minor and caused by rebar getting too close to the surface due to deterioration of the finish over a period of time. It may work for other type of stains such as those left by debris and leaves but we did not have that problem.

I don't think so. I used it on a gas tank on my motorcycle and it only took off the surface rust but not the think stuff. I soaked it for two days but no luck. Hope this helps you.

No. This product is for removing oil, grease, brake fluid and other contaminates. For rust you will need to use an abrasive product like the OTC-8342.

Hi Daniel,I got mine on April 21st. I'm using it daily ever since.I just checked it, and there was no sign of rust inside it.Note: I fill it with water from the reverse osmosis purifier only. Maybe that's why I haven't got any rust.ibraheem
