    I need to raise my Alkalinity.....but not my pH

    Thanks, the pool pH is back to 7.2, after using the pool Calculator(which works by the way....hahahah!). TA moved down slightly, but pool is crystal clear, tint has gone away....Nice.

    I need to raise my Alkalinity.....but not my pH

    the pool is clean and very clear.....just a slight green hue, not quite a tint if you get my drift....no foul smell, no sign of algae at all..... just after weekly testing the pH, FC and TA.....thought I should adjust the pH, and was a little concerned , because I am not sure if a low TA is bad...

    pH-7.8 CYA-50 TA-70 TC/FC-4ppm I use Clorox unscented 6% bleach weekly.....only. My fill water TA is 90, but I have had an unusual amount of rain here in Cincinnati, which I feel may be the culprit here.....

    What do you mean by "rising"? it has not been rising, at all, if any this season. Thanks...

    I need to raise my Alkalinity.....but not my pH

    thanks....so how does the alkalinity get so low? and then after adding the acid, does it go lower? what happens when it gets too low? thanks....
