    Default Well Water: Why you DON'T shock BEFORE using Sequestering Agent

    Lesson Learned - why you should be sure to properly use sequestering agent BEFORE you shock you pool when freshly filling.




    Ugly, isn't it? Yes, we did get it straightened out, but it required a couple of pump/filter setups running 24/7 AND several bottles of sequestering agent.

    Some people cannot have water trucked in and have to use a well, but you really need to be sure you take care of the metal issues!
