Thanks for the help with the plan, I will give it a try. Still don't have a cause which is going to bug me.

No aeration. How high do I raise the TA after it falls below 50?

No auto fill. In fact I added water Friday for the first time since I filled it. I cant leave the TA at 60 if I am adding 1/4gal of acid every other day. 3 doses drops the TA 10.

The problem is the rising PH. I would be fine at 60 but I have to constantly add acid to combat the PH which keeps dropping the TA.

The problem is since hitting my normal number of 90-100TA and 7.6-7.8PH the PH is non stop climbing at a rate of almost .2 per day. So every other day I am adding acid to drop it from 8. This is lowering my TA and at 60 I have to bump up back up to 90-100 range. This is a lot of acid and a lot...

So any idea of a source for the rising PH? This isnt normal and there is something else causing this.

Kind of starting to feel like I need 10ft of fuel line from autozone lol. Latest test: FC 7.5 CC 0.5 PH 7.4 TA 90 CH 460 CYA 30 Just added liquid 32oz of liquid conditioner and the PH was a oops from the wife. She added a bit more acid then she needed to.

Those were averages for the month, not a one time sample.

Please explain how the tests are not possible. Been doing exactly this for about 3 weeks now. Im wondering if the plaster failing would trigger this. It is at the end of the life cycle and I am starting to see very thin spots around the top. Already have some quotes to get it done. Im pretty...

Bump, still happening :confused:

My pool PH is constantly going up on a scale of .2 a day. Started with very high alkalinity 240 on a fresh pool which was normal. Lowered the alkalinity to 110 over two weeks by aeration and adding acid. This is when the PH kept going up requiring acid which dropped my alkalinity down to the 60...

Re-plaster was in 06. TA has always been 200+ on a fresh fill for the last 18 years. This process is something I have to go through anytime I drain the pool. I'm getting a good TA drop of around 10 per day but have never seen the PH fail to drop like this. The wife has been testing and I am...

Fighting high TA. Started at 240 and have brought it down to 140 by aerating and lowering PH daily. Yesterday 8am PH 7.7. Added 28oz of 31.45 acid. At 1130 it was down to 7.4. Added 12oz. At 6pm it was at 7.5. Nothing added and stopped aerating overnight. This morning at 7:30 it was 7.8...

So I believe I am looking good. TA is at 90 and PH is slowly rising at 7.4. Lost 2ppm FC yesterday in which we had rain all day. I still need to do the overnight test to make sure I don't need to slam it but everything seems like I am on the right track. I appreciate the forum and it's members...
