So Vitamin C is used to put the iron back into the pool? Or does Iron Out and the Vit C do different things. I ask because I have a 13.5k pool and wondering if I need to go ahead and get 2 lbs of Vit C or just a small bottle to test first?Quote:

Is there any affect to my salt PPM in the pool while doing this treatment (i.e. will it reduce salt levels).
I am just trying to make sure I fully understand how to bring the system back up after treating.
Just use them both on spots, and see if the spots are lifted.
Let's worry about full understanding, later. If neither lift the spots, there's not much here to understand.
BOTTOM LINE: We do NOT have a reliable procedure for removing stains and then removing the metals from the pool. We've had some success with working out methods by which people can manage the stains and metal, but we are a long way from a reliable complete method.
