How do you remove calcium deposits from a fiberglass pool

Why is my fiberglass pool’s shell fading? This is a frequent question that fiberglass pool customers may have to face at some point.

This dulling can start as a white material forming on the walls of the swimming pool and can also make the water appear hazy. The white film can also build up in the filter which will require constant cleaning. This can happen to any fiberglass pool because of age, over doing chemical treatments (especially overchlorination) or more frequently, a combination of these concerns.

If you view a layer of white or greyish-white grime on the walls of your pool around the tile line, that's calcium. Calcium can build up and leach into the shell’s gelcoat. As fiberglass pools begin to get older the gelcoat or color will slowly fade to white over time. Calcium scale deposits occur when your water an over abundance of calcium or from hard water. The white flakes are usually from calcium deposits that have built up over time.

Keeping a great looking fiberglass swimming pool requires keeping the water in balance by maintaining the right chemicals and systems to help control the factors that make calcification occur. One such system is the Vibranz fiberglass pool care system.
