I wasn't really sure as to where I should post this question, so I hope this is alright.
We have an acrylic spillover spa (see picture). It is white, which is bound to show anything and everything. However, from day one of having the spa installed it has had a brownish ring around the spa from the surface of the water. We would clean it, and almost instantaneously it would come back. It isn't very visible when the water level is high, but when you drop the level in order to get in it, the stain becomes very obvious.
We were told to clean it with just baking soda. Baking soda works okay, but it still is very hard to get it off. Is the water just dirty, or what is going on? Like I said, this has been going on since it (along with the pool) was installed (almost 3 years ago) By the way, our pool generates chlorine through salt.

It's sort of hard to see the stain in this picture, but it's there!

Thanks.
