Hi, this is my first post so forgive me if it's in the wrong section. I have an SWG and my readings this morning were as follows..
FC 4
CC 0
TA 70
PH 7.5
CH 150
CYA 60
Salt 3200
...I figured my readings were just where they should be so, I followed the directions to a T in the post regarding adding Borox to your pool. I used PoolMath to calculate the recommended amount of Muriatic acid and Mule Team Borax I should add. I started up the pump and did the deed. This was at 11:00 am, when I got home from work 8 hours later and took a reading my PH was 8.2 and my TA was 100! Did I do something wrong? I don't recall reading about other people's readings jumping up that high... Do I now go the route of dropping the PH real low again and airating like I did last week to lower my TA?... I recall reading that it was difficult to lower TA once there is Borax in the water.. Any help would be greatly appreciated.. Thanks!
