Hello,

Top frame, dirty brush, TDS to high, not rinsing, windy, sun to hot, bad use of pole, seal above the frame (goes into the building) is not sealed. 100 1 reasons!

Once a year I use bleach but give it a good rinse to finish

I was on the course at Ionics and they suggested using milton once a year. just dilute it as it suggests on the bottle fill the tank up with water, drive around like a maniac so it splashes everywhere in the tank, drain and rinse a few times (actually, Im not sure how many times they suggest rinsing but I did it 3 or 4 times.
