    Default White Flakes

    Hoping someone can help- have been to Leslie's 3 times in a week... and $200 later! Had water pumped in 2 weeks ago- listened to their suggestions and now the pool looks like a snowglobe! Afraid to drain a quarter of it and refill because we have well water with a very heavy iron content. Switched from chlorine to SW this year and never dealt with these white flakes. It makes the water feel think if that makes sense? Going to take things into my own hands and start reading
