Testing pool water that was just put in a month or so ago when new liner done. Multiple tests have shown PH at 8.2 (maybe higher in that the Taylor safety test only goes to 8.2?) and total alkalinity at 130. Added a gallon of muratic 31.45 -20 Baumé and still the PH remains consistently too high. Have had a ton of rain in the last month, but I would think that would have joy served to bring down the PH.
Can’t really figure this one out…. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

When you test pH, if 8 or above, lower it to 7.4 or so. Test pH a few days later, repeat. Eventually the TA will come down and the pH will rise less fast.
