Thank you

Aha! So it’s the extreme sunlight and the warm pool temperatures! Thanks so much for your replies. I’ll just plan to check my cya levels once a month throughout the summer months. Thanks again!

Is it possible to loose over 10ppm ( more closer to 20ppm) in one month? I’m in the South of Spain. My pools water temperature has been around 30C or slightly higher for the past 3 months. I got my Taylor test kit on 13th July and immediately tested the cya, because I’d been relying on test...

Thank you for the links for the pool tester. I'll check them out. I found liquid chlorine/bleach at the tractor & supply store. It is 14%. I removed the tabs I had in the water, added borax to bring the ph up to 7.4 and have put in the bleach in and have the chlorine levels at 2 at the...

Thank you all so much for all your help. I have spent the whole day looking online for the recommended pool test kits and can't find anyone supplying them in Spain and because of regulations they can't be shipped here either :( I'm looking now to see if I can find one that tests for as many of...

Thank you. I'll try and purchase one of those two.

Thanks for all the information. I'll look around to get a quality testing kit that measures all those qualities you mention. I may have to send off for one online, as I've never seen a kit that is so comprehensive in the pool supply shops here. The name of the chlorine tablets with the ph...

I'm new to all this. I'm testing my water witha digital reader called aquacheck. It gives me the readings for chlorine, ph and total alkalinity. I inherited the pool with the house I bought 3 years ago. I followed the previous owner's advice for the pool maintenance and for the past 3 years...

I added a fountain like this to my return jet and it is not raising the ph at all! The pool pump is on for 10 hours a day. The ph has dropped down to 6.5!!! I have added borax to bring it up. The TA today was 180

my chlorine pool ph keeps returning to 6.5! At the beginning of summer when the pool water was around 30ºC I noticed the ph had dropped rapidly to 6.5. I added borax to raise it. It raised to 7.6. After 15 days it returned to 6.5. I added a fountain to one of my return jets. With the pump on 10...

wow! Brilliant fountain! Will this also help with low ph and high TA levels?
