Hi, our pool water needs some help and I've been advised to look into reverse osmosis. Does anyone know of a company that can bring the equipment to our house?
Anyone done this to their own pool?
thanks

Only thing I can think of you wanting reverse osmosis is you don't want to drain pool.

I asked a while back for my own pool and found out it's cheaper to drain and refill pool instead of renting an industrial reverse osmosis machine to clean the water. I used to work with reverse osmosis in the military on the 3000gph and 600gph ROWPU.

You forget you also have waste water when using reverse osmosis.

read troublefreepool.com, you can also search on osmosis there (do a google search for site:troublefreepool.com osmosis)

You should buy your own test kit. Troublefreepool.com markets one, but there is a taylor test kit that I use that is more "official"- wouldnt trust pool stores. Which one of your chemicals is supposedly out of whack?

ultimately draining the pool partially is going to be your best option if you need to remove cyanuric acid. However as we discussed recently, in austin cyanuric acid disappears somehow from our pools.


In the future stopping using pucks and switching over to bleach will prevent it from happening again.
