two days ago, I’m just opening the pool and found my pH low (using a Taylor big kit):
FC:6
PH:7.0
TA 65
CH 250
CYA 75.
Pool Math app suggested 9 pounds of 20 mule team borax. I put in 4 pounds, even though I don’t have borax in my pool. I happen to have an unopened box, so I used it. I have a salt, water, pool and plaster.
Two days later, today:
FC: 1.5
PH: unknown. It looks to be way off the scale, above 8.0. Super dark pink.
TA 65
CH 250
CYA 75.
I tried to find something on the forums that would explain, but I couldn’t. Should I use muriatic acid to bring it down?
Thanks for the help.
