    Tough TA

    I just dumped 100 oz of HCL and got pH down to 7.0 and TA to 80. I'll aerate to get the pH back up and check back tomorrow.

    Thanks guys. Quite helpful. What's frustrating is that my TA is quite unstable. Now my pH is 7.5 but the TA went to 110 from 90 just by aeration?????

    Anyone using SOLAR SUN RINGS?

    I agree. They work just difficult to deploy and store.

    You are on to something. I can try adding more muriatic acid but that will drive my pH really low.

    The TA was 70 before I added borates and muriatic acid.

    Tough TA

    I left my water feature on (over spill spa, 3 Jandy jet, and 3 tier water fountain, compressor )all night and guess what? TA didn't even budge :( . Stayed at 90. pH 7.2, borax (awaiting test strip), CL 6ppm (just schocked the pool), CYA around 60. Any other idea?

    Well, after 10 lbs of NaHCO3 TA is now 70 and pH is 7.2. I'll add another 6lb tomorrow. What do you guys think?

    I've confirmed the numbers with a Taylor test kit. For now I added 10 lbs of arm and hammer baking as per your calculator suggest.

    I also shocked the pool and now my CL is 6ppm should I just wait for it to dessipate? Thanks for your quick response. PH is 7.0 and TA is 25ppm.

    I put too much muriatic acid and now ph is low so is alkalinity. Can I just wait it out or should I raise the ph and alkalinity. I've a SWG. Thanks.
