How do you remove calcium deposits from a fiberglass pool

Why is my fiberglass pool’s shell whitening? This is a common concern that fiberglass pool owners may have to understand at some point.

This whitening can start as a white film forming on the shell of the swimming pool and can also make the water seem hazy. The white particulate can also build up in the filter which will require frequent cleaning. This can happen to any fiberglass pool because of age, excessive chemical treatments (especially overchlorination) or most frequently, a combination of these issues.

If you view a film of white or greyish-white film on the sides of your pool around the tile line, that's calcium. Calcium can build up and leach into the shell’s gelcoat. As fiberglass swimming pools begin to get older the gelcoat or color will slowly fade in color over time. Calcium scale deposits happen when your water has too much calcium or from hard water. The white flakes are typically are there from calcium deposits that have accumulated over time.

Maintaining a great looking fiberglass pool means keeping the water in balance by maintaining the right chemicals and systems to help control the processes that make calcification possible. One such system is the Vibranz fiberglass pool care system.
