    Alkaline & PH very low

    It wasn’t like that at all previously. Only since it was sent back to me. That extra 1/4 turn is all it’s taking to stop the fluid coming out. I’m quite sure with the pump running for a day or two, it would start leaking at the fittings. I’ve emailed the company again to tell them I’m send...

    Alkaline & PH very low

    Back again with another issue… After getting my acid dousing pump back and being told it’s working fine, I’m not having issues getting it to pump. I’ve bled the system and it seems to work fine but as soon as tighten the suction and discharge fittings on the pump, it looses suction. I slack...

    Alkaline & PH very low

    Checked the bucket of water this morning 1 hour after the pool pump started (bucket that the acid pump suction line was in) and the level was way down. This confirms the dousing pump is faulty as it was in stop mode, yet fluid was still getting siphoned out. As per suggestion from a poster...

    Alkaline & PH very low

    Really appreciate the advice but that’s way out of my league. I would need to send it back to the company I bought it from but the last time I done that (2 weeks ago) they told me they had done full service and it was only the sensor . They even sent me a photo of the sensor with big crack in it...

    Alkaline & PH very low

    I posted pictures of the dousing pump earlier. I’ve had the pump hooked back up today with suction line coming from a bucket that I marked. With dousing pump in stop position, the level has stayed stable for past 5 hours. Will leave it like that overnight and see if any change. Very confusing...

    Alkaline & PH very low

    Ok as of 5 pm my ph has came up a little bit since I disconnected the discharge line from the acid dousing pump. Now sitting at about 7.2. Scratching my head though as the alkaline level has dropped again. It’s back to about 40-45! Not had any rain, acid pump has been disconnected and pump been...

    Alkaline & PH very low

    Sorry, I was only ever logging on through my phone but now logged on via my laptop and re-sized some photos. Alkaline is sitting stable at 60 and I still need to add cyanuric acid but obviously I don't want to be doing that until I get my PH back up. Is it possible for acid to be sucked from...
