Joshua's Questions - preparing for ECOsmarte

So I want to get the Eco smarte system for my pool. We (The Family) are getting a new liner coming soon. I want to have a fresh start with no chemicals (esp. Chlorine) & also stay that way. A pool man that said he's had your System for 7 years said that they will put a powder (some kind of calcium base) on the liner that needs to bleached off first (before addding water) to prepare for the Eco smarte system. I don't want to use bleach. Do you have any suggestions or tips for this (or anything else)? Also, to lower pH levels you recommend to use muriatic acid. Won't this be hazardous (which is what we are trying to avoid)? Can you recommend a better natural approach (that's less harsh than stomach acid)? Would white distilled vinegar work (maybe for both)?

Thank You, Joshua!
