There are 2 SIMPLE and EASY things you can do to slow down calcium buildup. . . and neither one costs you a dime! The first way to slow down calcium buildup is to brush the tile line (water line) weekly. This two minute job has a big impact on slowing the calcium buildup, but yet it is something that many pool owners neglect to do. Before I give you the second way, I want to talk a little bit about the cause of calcium buildup (as it will help the second way make more sense when I talk about it). Calcium buildup on pool tiles is a direct result of the amount of calcium in the water. That calcium in the water can come in the form of hard water. Every geographical area wil have different levels of hardness in the water. Calcium in the water can also come from the chemicals you regularly add to your pool. You are adding chemicals to your pool every single week (even if you have a salt system). Think of your pool as a cup of tea. If you keep adding sugar to that cup of tea, at some point saturation takes place and our tea can't handle all the sugar you're putting in it. When that happens, absorbtion becomes more and more difficult. The same is true with the chemicals you add to your pool. Calcium buildup can therefore occur in any part of the pool that is under water. The most common place it occurs, though, is at the water line. Another way to slow down the natural buildup of TDS in your pool (especially if you already have a known calcium or TDS issue with your water), is to backwash your pool frequently. That way, you are replacing saturated water with fresh water (assuming, of course, that the hardness of the "fresh" water is lower than the hardness level of the water you're replacing in the pool).
