Current readings: I have 16,000 inground, plaster pool pH 7.8 TAC 5.0 CH 430 CYA 50 TA 70 Temp 78F I am having trouble keeping my ph from rising. When its time to add chlorine, my pH is 7.8-8.0. I add acid to drop ph to 7.6 and continues to rise up again. I am keeping eye on CSI and at ph...

I am using liquid chlorine 12.5%, not pucks

Fill water TA is 100

Fill water pH is 7.4 I am suing Taylor K-2006 kit. All reagents are good.

My fill water has a TA of 100

I raised it because I thought that could be cause of my pH problem I had it at 60 and struggled with this same problem at that TA. I

Ok. I really need your help. I have been having trouble finding that happy medium betwen TA and pH. I adjusted TA from 60 to 90, adjusted the pH to 7.6 After adding chlorine (12.5%), the pH remained stable at 7.6 that evening. By the next morning, it is back yup to 8.0-8.2. high, even after...

Sorry, but I don't understand your reply. Can you elaborate.

I am using Taylor K-2006 kit. All reagents are good. I will check the pH, chlorine, and TA of my fill water and get back to you.

It is going way beyond 8.0 if I do not add acid daily because the next day I will be adding additonal chlorine. But at this temp 82 degrees, it is pretty close to scaling and the temperature rise to around 88-90 degrees quickly.

Reposting this thread. I am adding 4 cups of 12.5% iquid chlorine daily. Th pH , I feel is rising too much, from 7.75 to 8.0 and never returns back to 7.75 or even close. It drops back to around 7.9 three hous later and never lower. I adjust daily by adding 4.5 oz muriatic acid daily to...

Merged threads. TFP Mod. I am wondering if what I am doing is right. Everyday I am adding around 4 cups liquid chlorine to raise the level to around 6.5. The pH initally reads at 7.75. After 3 hours, the pH is only at 7.9 and never goes back to the original reading. I am adding around 4.5 oz...

Ok, I have a general question which I hope you can help me with. I have been using liquid chlorine 12.5% in my pool. As expected, the pH rises. pH is reading at about 7.8 before adding chlorine and rises to about 8.0 after addition of chlorine. My question is should I adjust the pH at this...

Does raising the FC to 5 affect your ph reading, meaning can a high FC level give you a false pH reading. either high or low?

I am wondering if I need to increase my TA levels even though I am not seeing any shift in my pH readings. I know the levels should start at at 80. I am checking daily. My current reads are as follows: Temperature is 67 degrees F./ 16000 gallon pool. I am using liquid chlorine in my pool. TA...

Those are the readings of my fill water before adding the necessary chemicals. Its been weeks since that took place. My water has been good. However my TA was as high as 120 at one time I am using 12% bleach and as such my pH kept climbing around 0.2 ppm daily. Little by little it went down...

pH: 7.4 TA: around 90 CH: 80

My readings today are as follows: TA: Between 80-90ppm pH: 7.8 CYA: 50 CH: 240 FC: 4.0ppm Not sure of what the temperature is. I calculate my CSI to be a little around zero. My question is, is the pH okay at this reading of 7.8 or should I bring it down to around 7.6 I which will bring my CSI a...

Hello. Just refilled the pool. Quick question. Do you recommend using a scale free product in your pool water or as long as you keep you pool water balanced, you shouldn't have to worry about scale and calcium build-up on your tile?

I just purchased the Taylor K2006 kit. Yes, they are pool store test results. I will test today with my new kit. Personally, I do not trust pool stores much. They give me conflicting results all the time, so that is why I am here to get help from this forum and I purchased my own kit...

Hello. I just refilled my pool. All readings are within limits after addition of necessary chemicals ( Calcium chloride, Stabilizer, granular chlorine). My pool is 16000 gallons. My readings are as follows: FAC - 4 ppm TAC - 4 ppm CH - 200 ppm CYA - 50 ppm TA - 100 pH - 7.5 TDS - 200 Pho -...
