Thanks, much appreciated. @Ahhsomeguy, if I wanted to mix it with water like the old concentrate, is there a formula I can use to figure out the right ratio? How much to add to a 1 G jug? My hot tub is 380 G, but 400 is close enough. Thx!
I have been using Ahh!Some's products for purges on regular maintenance for a while now and really like it. I recently ran out and accidentally bought the Ahh!some product from Ahhnatural by mistake. I'm guessing it is a knockoff. Trying to decide if I should just throw it away or if I should...
Thank you, but maybe I wasn't clear in my original post. My concern was that by adding the amount of 20 Mule Team suggested by the Pool Calculator and then having to add more than twice the amount of muriatic acid to get Ph/Alkalinity correct, I may have added too much 20 Mule Team. So instead...
I use the Pool Math app to calculate all my chemical additions to the hot tub. With Borates I used to measure but stopped as getting consistent results was challenging at best. I just did a water change and got to the point of adding borates. This was my first time using 20 Mule Team Borax...
Thanks for the help everyone! It actually was the aerators throwing off the Ph readings so much. I always have them turned off and just turned them on for the Ahh-some treatment. Had no idea that they would have so large an impact.
No one has been in the tub since I filled it. I have not added any borate just tested it as the Ph readings were so off. The filters were in the tub (not filter well) when I used the Ahh-some, but I just realized I didn't rinse them afterward. Maybe that is what is causing all the problems.
Thanks for the reply. I'm using the Taylor K-1005 for testing everything but borates, also using the TFP Pool Math app to determine how much to add. I did a complete water change. After adjusting CH I first adjusted TA before trying to adjust Ph. Initially it was 30, then after adding baking...
My spa is about 2 years old. I was recently having trouble maintaining a chlorine level so I purchased Ahh-some and used it twice. Lots of foam but just a little biofilm. I drained and refilled it. Added calcium chloride to get CH to 140. Added baking soda to get TA to 70 which increased Ph...
