Pool chemistry:
FC: 10
TA 75
pH: 7.1
CYA: 0 (added the requisite amount of CYA to get to 80 ppm, waiting to test it again)
Borates: 40
Now, I have to raise the pH, right? I'll probably test it again later today when the FC will be lower (just finished superchlorinating). But to do that I have to add borax right? Is adding the 125 oz it will take to raise my pH going to have that much effect on my borate level? Now, isn't it a problem if I keep adding borax over time since borates don't degrade? Thanks.
