    Using borax to raise pH

    I have ordered the boric acid. Do I put it in all at once or use multiple doses?

    Using borax to raise pH

    My thought was if I add acid to lower the TA into the correct range why can’t I then just add the borax to raise the Borate level to 50 ppm and also let it raise the pH at the same time?

    Using borax to raise pH

    I want to add borax to my pool but my total alkalinity is high at 170 ppm. Can I add muratic acid to lower the total alkalinity which will also lower the pH and then add the borax to raise the pH back up to 7.4?
