Hi guys,
I drained my pool a few weeks back and ever since the ph has been out of control - I add muriatic acid to bring down to 7.2, and like 48 hours later, it's up around 8.2.
My TA is 120 and I've read on here to try bringing it down around 60 and see if that helps.
Here's my issue: I've been adding acid to keep the ph in check but the TA isn't going down with it, so presumably I need to add acid faster and aerate the heck out of it to get the ph up as fast as possible. But I don't want my pool to be rocking a 3.0 ph for any period of time either... so how low can i go on ph during this process without causing damage?
