How to Prevent Calcium Scaling on Your Pool Tile
How to protect your pool tile from Texas's naturally hard water.
To prevent white calcium scale lines on Texas pool tile, you must maintain your pool's pH between 7.4 and 7.6, monitor total alkalinity, and apply a scale inhibitor product monthly. Once calcium hardness exceeds 800 ppm, you must drain and refill the pool to dilute the mineral buildup.
Why Does Calcium Scale Form on Pool Tile?
Our tap water in the New Braunfels area is naturally high in calcium. When pool water evaporates under the dry heat, the minerals stay behind and crystallize on the hot tile surface, creating a stubborn white scale line.
