Thanks for all the responses. The PB told me to go get the acid and he would "shut down" the pool today. I asked him to wait till swimming season was over for this which he said would be no problem. I have the CH up to 210 now and the scale seems to look like it is smaller. You guys are saying the same thing the chemical store said thats why I halted the acid bath. The Ph has been a problem but there seems to be no copper or iron on the water tests. Sorry for the confusion on the Wet edge, It is actually the Satin matrix pebble finish. I am going to try the acid on the filters tonight.
Thanks again for all the help.
