Calcium build up on outside of gunite pool ledge

Postby John2 » Sun 09 Jun, 2019 10:14

Hi everyone,
I have been getting calcium build up on outside infinity ledge of pool. Pool maintenance people said it is from splashing water... they installed extra piece of tile to divert water away from edge but not working..... I’m concerned I have a hidden crack/leak.... please advise if you have ever seen this before or any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Not seen quite such a small projection of wall as yours so it looks like splash out. Can you post some water figures so we can see water hardness, Alkalinity, and pH?
