I'm constantly in a battle with my pool trying to keep pH down (for the last two weeks lol)
I'm adding muriatic acid according to poolmath and it still always creeps up to 8.2+
(Scale only goes up to 8.2 but if I were to guess, I'd say 8.6)
I have to run my spillway to get the water into my spa so I'm guessing that aeration is the cause of this.
Without having any experience with MA to begin with, how often should I expect to have to add it?
Now my numbers are slightly off but not too far maybe that is a cause as well? Here's my latest from my TF-Pro kit:
FC: 5.0
pH: 8.4
TA: 90
CYA: 100
Ultimately I'm struggling most with my numbers, NOT the water. Perhaps I will eventually have water issues though? It's looked perfect since I took over after my first fresh fill from contractor.
CYA is a result of contractor telling me to add 10lbs of conditioner and that was before I found TFP.
