hi- first this site has been great for me learning how to have a trouble free pool and saving money so thanks to everyone for that.
i just opened the pool 2 weeks ago seemed to get everything lined up pretty well. The TA was a little high at around 95ish. I checked the pool again yesterday and realized the PH was very low at around 6.8. My question is what should i do next? i wanted to get the PH up but then realized that the TA is going to increase. I then read to reduce TA get the PH down to 7 and aerate. I added some borax but havent retested yet but i added enough to get to 7.1. Should i now aerate to get the TA down before i add more borax to increase PH back to normal levels 7.6
TIA
