| Comment: Currently, CO2 is missing and acid is being hand-fed for pH control. This is not safe or allowed by Iowa Pool Code. Recommend replacing missing CO2 tank. It is safer than muratic acid. If you choose to change your system to use muratic acid, you will need to apply for a reconstruction permit from the state of Iowa (provided), pay a $250 fee, and provide plans and specifications that are sealed and certified by a licensed architect or engineer prior to making any changes to the current system. | ||||
