My TA was 100 (4 drops until it turned pink, CCL test kit, the test for +100). Same as pool shop test two weeks ago basically. I have been topping up the pool once a week, I will test the tap water in the coming days. Ph still at 7.5 this evening (pump ran 8 hours today). I followed poolmath...

well, 2 days after my previous dosing ph was back at 8.3. I haven't touched the pool for a few days because of the crazy easterlies we get here around the hills. After reading a bit more on the forum, I decided to just add the acid this time without water, probably about 600ml, ph came down to...
