Is it typical to have to adjust pH on a daily basis because it gets too high?
Our plaster pool was re-plastered about 3 years ago. I am testing the pH daily and adding acid at least 5 days out of 7. If I go 3 days without testing the pH is above 8.2.
This doesn't seem right.
And my TA never drops no matter how much acid I add to the pool. I've had the pH down to 7.2 for several days while fighting algae and my TA doesn't budge.
Any thoughts?
We keep our CC level on the high side to keep black algae in check.
