We just opened the pool for the summer and after pulling off the cover and starting the pump that there was a salty look to the water. Then I brushed my hand acrfoss the bottom of the pool and it was like sand. It's never been this ruff on the bottom of the pool. I sweep the whole pool, but it's still a little ruff. The pool is a inground 25,000 gal.  any clues as to why the bottom of the pool is so ruff would be appreciated. I checked the chems and the PH is a little high and the chlorinne is low. So I adjusted the chems but no surface change yet.

Hi,

I'm not sure what that substance would be. I would suggest continuing to vacuum and cleaning your filters regularly for the next week or two as when you vacuum that debris will be going back to your filter. I would also make sure to have your chemicals within the standard range, don't let your chlorine or stabilizer levels get low.

Thank You
