My PB insisted on hot start despite my strong concerns. Please no comments on this practice as it has already been done and I just need to be done with the pool builder
They are now telling me they will hand over the pool for me to manage. They have no plan to raise the pH, tell me what is in the pool or give me a guidance as to the pH they are currently measuring. They are telling me it may be ready tomorrow or the next day.
I was planning to do my own pool service, but not sure how to undo a hot start (my test kit doesn’t go to a pH of 4). I can try to get a pool service guy out tomorrow, but I am sure it will cost a fortune at last minute. Is this something I can do on my own? I watched a YouTube video which basically said add a ton of soda ash then a bunch of borax. I don’t have either of these on hand, but I can make a run to the store. Is that all it is?
Appreciate help. I’m stressed, frustrated, and exhausted by a project that didn’t have to be this hard.
