    Help balancing TA and CSI

    Here are my latest numbers: FC = 5 PH = 7.2 TA = 50 Ch = 280 CYA = 20 Salt = 3200 Borate = 50 Temp = 72 and rising Historically I've tried to keep my TA to the low side as I was seeing PH rise due to running the liquidator. This weekend I liquidated the liquidator and replaced it with a salt...

    What are the lower limits for TA?

    I've successfully gone through the process of lowering my TA from 110 down to 80. Once I was done I waited a week and saw that the pH was up by about .2 so I added just over a cup of 31.45% acid for my 18,000 gallon in-ground. I am quite pleased in the reduction in acid usage. Now I'm...

    TA, PH and aeration

    I'm using the acid / aeration technique to drop the TA levels. The acid part was easy and I dropped the pH down to 7.0 - 7.2. TA was at 180 when I started the process. Now I'm aerating the pool by injecting air into the skimmer. I'm able to roughly control the amount of air back at the pump...

    High CYA - HIGH Phosphates

    This is my first pool and it'll be a year in April. It's a 17 x 35 (approx 18,000 gal) diamondbrite located in Miami, FL. I refill the pool from my well pump. The pool is open basically year-round and I believe that the previous owner was using chlorine tabs w/stablizer for the most part...
