We have a above ground pool and use well water to fill. Wondering if this product would help reduce the orange iron from the water?

The best I can tell it just removes the chlorine from the water I really dont think its a filter. But check with the manufacturer ..

Yes, it will work fine and also help with pH levels and reduce the amount of chemicals needed to maintain pool. Make sure to use an outdoor unit. (scalewatcher 5 star)Jay-Better Water Store.

I have not used it on a garden but on a black car for washing and in a hot tub. On the car it really reduced the hard water spots left after the final rinse. When I filled the hot tub it wet from being dingy orange to crystal clear right out of the filter (before the hot tub filters even kicked in). Needless to say I am a big believer in thia product for my uses.

I have well water too and it contains metals. Sometimes if I let the water get too low and have to add water, It will turn green from the metals. When I add pool magnet plus it makes the metals drop to the bottom of the pool and clears the water. It works really well for that.

I have been using this product for years. Never had an issue. I keep my pool clean and the chemicals up, though. I also have a pool that has self cleaning jets that really make the water circulate well. Hope this helps.

mine seems to help because my above the ground pool is not very smooth on the bottom.

I just used it to clean up some iron stains on both my commode and tub. It seems to work best if you sprinkle it on, dampen it and let it set a bit before you scrub. It is not quite as effective on lime buildup but did quite well on the rust stains.

It is probably the water(minerals). U can by a special solution for cleaning out irons- can' t remember what it is called since I have quit ironing.maybe that will help..

We had an awful problem with phosphates in our pool especially with our well water. Last year in order to get rid of the problem we used PhosFree Commercial strength and that took care of it. Probably a good idea to start with the Commercial strength then maintain with the regular PhosFree. Overall a great product! We love the liquid solar cover by Natural Chemistry too - it works.

Yes Marge. We use a carbon filter as it removes chlorine, iron,organics from our private well. I trust you and your family are doing well. Kindest regards, Lynn

No. I would recommend the well system unit. This would work on a well but the life would be severely lessened due to high iron levels.

It doesn't take long because it is baking soda. Once you have your water balanced right once a week should work unless you're using the pool alot. If using alot then three times a week.

I tried it on the calcium ring around my pool. It was much slower to work than Muriatic acid and required more scrubbing. I'm going to try ascorbic acid next as KT suggested.

I use it 2-3 times a week, we have well water with alot of iron in it. I use the treatment packet about every other week

I think you would be fine using this product with salt water pools that use the salt for chlorine generation. The product is mostly baking soda with water clarifier added in. The product does 3 things: increases pH, increases Alkalinity and adds clarifier to your pool water. I use this product with my outdoor pool which holds about 28,000 gallon and have been very happy with it. I add about 1 tablet of this per 4 tablets of 3 inch chlorine tablets that I put into my chlorinator. If you monitor your pool chemistry you could also periodically just add a tablet(s) when your pH and Alkalinity levels get low in your pool. You could also buy Arm & Hammer baking soda for Alkalinity adjustment with a separate pool water clarifier product and use them as directed to achieve the same end result.

HI Rhonda, I use these in my above ground pool and there is no film in the pool and doesn't affect pool chemicals. You can't see it. I can tell the difference in water temp when it is removed. I really don't know how it works, but it does help keep the water warmer. In my opinion it works for me.I hope this helps.

They actually recommend Morton solar salt. If you have iron in your water make sure to get salt that has an iron reducer.
