We got a new liner installed this week and have finished filling the pool with water from our hose (so "tap water"). I checked chemicals and pH is way above 8.2 , Alk is 50 and chlorine( with just the little tester that you do with the pH) is about 4.
I know I should fix my pH and alk but A) not sure what to do first and B) wonder if I should give it a couple of days and retest pH. That seems really high for tap water (I also checked directly from the tap...city water... with same results).
