Q: Why do I have calcium lumps in my pool?

• <div><p>Calcium lumps in a pool are calcium deposits that form when a pool's water parameters are not in the normal range. They can float around on the surface of the pool water, making it look and feel dirty. The most common causes of calcium lumps in pools are calcium hardness above 1,000 ppm, alkalinity over 120, and a pH over 7.8. Keeping your pool&rsquo;s calcium levels, alkalinity, and pH levels within the normal, safe ranges is the best way to prevent calcium lumps and other problems, including damage to the pool surface.</p></div>

Q: Does pool water damage artificial grass?

• <div><p>Pool water&mdash;or rather, the chlorine in pool water&mdash;generally doesn&rsquo;t damage artificial grass. This type of grass is made from plastic fibers that are incredibly resilient. That said, you can damage artificial grass around a pool in other ways. For example, the sun&rsquo;s reflection off a window or fence can melt polyethylene fibers. A temporary pool can flatten and cause an indent in turf.</p></div>

Q: Do inground pools have liners?

• <div><p>Both above ground and inground pools can have pool liners. Inground pools made of gunite don&rsquo;t need pool liners, and you&rsquo;ve probably walked along an unlined pool and felt the ripples and ridges on the floors and walls. But adding a liner over gunite or other pool types helps protect the wall panels from algae growth.</p></div>

Q: How quickly will a solar cover heat a pool?

• <div><p>A solar cover can heat your pool anywhere from 5 to 15 degrees Fahrenheit over the course of 6 to 12 hours, depending on how much full sun your pool gets and how big it is. When used in conjunction with a solar pool heater, your pool will heat up even faster, all while using less energy than a traditional pool heater. </p></div>
