Thanks Again chas.
I vacuumed up so more calicum yesterday and the ph held to 6.8 over night. The side walls are about 65% clearer, and the bottom/flat duerfaces are about 45% cleaner. I am out of town again next week so I am hoping I can have this tub back in shape by Saturday, or at least in a maintianble mode for my wife to babysit.
I'm runnning the pumps a few times a day to ciruclate the water and get as much agitation and mixture as possible.
My pool guy wasn't sure with what I wanted when I asked for "pool acid". He didn't want to give me muraciatic acid.
I've soaked the filter in a degreaser, then rinsed, and now soaking in a tub of water with very low PH (below 6.
I was going to soak the filter in the degreaser again tonight, and then rinse and see what I had.
What should I expect for damage to my pumps and heater? anything?
