I have an above ground pool that has a terrible brownish ring/stain just about the water line. I've tried scrubbing it and using pool recommended cleaners, which haven't worked. Monsoon storms left a fine layer of dirt on the bottom that the vacuum is not picking up. It's a mess! Any ideas?

I don't know if it is recommended by the pool companies but I used Clorox clean up spray on mine and it came out really nice. My pool is about 16 years old and I'm only on second liner. Friends tell me that is really good.

My mother in law had the same problem. Use Soft Scrub with bleach and scrub, this works well. (07/23/2005)

Your stain is probably iron, but there is a chance it could also be bacterial. There are many products for pools, but an above ground pool has its own parameters. I suggest you contact the company that installed your pool and ask them. Most likely, they have products that they will be happy to sell you that will not harm the liner. Good luck. : )

Try baking soda, that worked for a friend of mine. (07/25/2005)

Trouble with above ground pool all summer. Algae on the bottom and sides, however, the water is CLEAR when you put it in a glass! How can we get rid of the green algae on the bottom of the pool. We vacuum and vacuum and clean the filters but it still appears.
