00:00 - Intro
01:44 - Drinks made from plants have natural color from Tannins. Wine, coffee, tea, etc.
06:10 - Nothing replaces the importance of physically cleaning organics out of the pool. Leaves, acorns and other droppings will overwhelm chlorine if you do not regularly remove them.
10:25 - Tannins can be soaked out of decaying organics. They either stain the surface or discolor the water, or both.
12:48 - If you don't clean off mesh covers, decaying organics will release tannins into the pool below the cover. It's not pretty.
14:20 - Cleaning up tannin stains and discoloration mostly involves chlorination. But is chlorination the most efficient way of handling tannins? Not in our opinion.
15:58 - CV-600 and CV-700 enzymes are awesome for handling tannins. Enzymes devour them.
19:05 - How can you identify if it's an organic or metal issue? You can do the white bucket test. Scoop some water into the clean white bucket and add a bit of liquid chlorine. If it clears up, it was either algae or tannins (organics). If the water gets darker, it's metals.
