Thanks Janet I'll check that out. My water comes from a municipal source. From what I understand now, as this kind of water evaporates, the metals are left behind. That probably explains why the water has always had a strange metallic taste since we inherited this pool. I hope I haven't endangered my family by not taking action to correct it. Having never had a pool before, I thought it was normal.
