After a major partial drain/refill, then a ridiculous amount of MA additions and aeration to lower the TA, I am now where I want to be (or at least good enough):
FC 8
CC 0
pH 7.2
TA 70
CYA 50
CH 800
Now that I got these levels dialed in, will the weekly addition of water due to evaporation change things? If so, what will it change?
Through the forum, I am expecting the pH to rise with time as that sounds as though more common than it falling. Also, with my CH 800 and my TA 70, I can keep balanced water based on 75° temp by keeping a pH from 7.1 to 7.6. At this point, should I bother continuing to aerate to try to get to 7.5?
Also, in the event of pH drop, do I add borax per Pool Calculator, which shows it will slightly increase TA (but less than soda ash/washing soda) or do I aerate?
Thanks for all the help in getting my pool to this point!
