So asking you guys that seem to be much smarter than me with chemistry and math. double check me please.
My pool uses 1 gallon of MA a week. I’m plagued with high TA for my water fill. With the 34.5% MA I am installing a automatic acid dispenser. I got a Stenner pump that operates at 0.89 ounzes per minute. I also have 15 gallon barrel for a 3 to 1 dilution. So… trying to get a rough estimate where to start, so here is my thinking…
I need 1 gallon a week which is 128 fl ounzes, divide by 7 days to get 18.3 ounzes of acid needed daily. 3 to 1 dilution would mean the pool needs (18.3oz acid, 54.9oz water) 73.2 ounzes of the dilution daily. The pump at 0.89 ounces per minute means it’s needs to run for 82.2 minutes (73.2 divided by 0.89).
Does the sound somewhat correct?
