Given the nature of the disapearing Dot CYA test the best I'm ever willing to say on CYA involves an ish on the end. I also would at most put a 5 like 35 or 75 on my CYA number since no CYA test tube I have ever purchased is graduated in anything but multiples of 10. This however I think is...

Thanks for the Education Waterbear. I was just reading the thread at ta-what-is-it-really-t4979.html and was interested to see that CYA is a PH Buffer as well. I know my CYA is low and I'm in the process of raising it. I have a SWG, but due to my studies here I usually run it around 60ish...

Ok I'm confused. Everything I have read here and the Pool Forum over the last 4 years indicates that a Purpose of controlling TA is that it is a PH Buffer among other things. I tend to run TA in the 100ish range to help with the PH drift on the assumption that TA is a PH Buffer. from this...

I can not find an Online source for the "phAdjuster" by HASA who makes the clorinator. The "phAdjuster" would be perfect, but I can't find anywhere to buy it. I have tried the contact us page at http://www.ezpool.com/phadjuster.htm and have not gotten a response. I feel my water is adjusted...

Does anyone have a source for a cheap, all in one ph Adjustment system? I need an ph down solution not a ph up soluiton. I like an all in one, buy this follow the include instructions, monitor and adjust as needed solution. I have a Plaster Pool with a SWG and a water feature that runs...

We have been discussing this same video over in the Coffee Bar section. I raised the same question about using it in place of Muriatic Acid too. Check the thread out over here

My Nitro Wall Scrubber arrived this evening. It is in the pool and running now. It has already gotten up several Leaves that my Polaris 360 missed will running all night and day long. I'll come back and give a full review on it in a week or so.

Thanks I'll look into it, but you then also need to buy a tank and pluming etc. So I'd suspect a DIY CO2 system for a pool is in the minimum $500 range. The Chlorinator is $140ish, I don't expect there PH Control system to be much more then that.

Ok I was thinking about the cost factor. A gallon of Acid is costing me from Lowes rounded, but without taxes $7. A .5 drop in PH in my 32000 gallon pool is roughly half a gallon so $3. I have a Plaster Pool and a SWG so I get that much of a raise over a couple of weeks. The video claims a...

I have actually been researching CO2 systems for PH control somewhat. I'm hoping to find a source for the phControl system made by the Clorinator folks as that would be a much cheaper solution then a CO2 system appears to be.

So there is no change in TA just a PH drop? So how much does Dry Ice cost compare to Muriatic Acid? How long does the Dry Ice take to totally gas out? Handling the Dry Ice would be about as hazardous as pouring MA, but the fog show would much more entertaining.

A .5-1 gallon Acid demand per week consistently since the pool was installed in August of 2005 is the reason I am considering adding the borates. It is a 32000 gallon gunite/plaster pool with a SWG so my PH constantly drifts up. The drift usually isn't fast enough that I have to add Acid more...

So I have 2 60lbs Dogs that run around the pool all summer long. One is in the pool constantly if I don't block off the entrance stairs and even then she drinks from the pool often. The other comes to the side and I have to cup my hands to give him a drink. They would much rather drink my...
