Have had my pool since 7/4.. Here are my numbers so far:
My pH after initial fill with city hose water was 7.8.. I was advised to put in 12oz of muriatic acid so I did.. 4 hours after I had put that in I tested pH and it was 7.0.. Next day it was 7.2, next day 7.0, no test, next day 7.0.. I then added 76oz of borax to try and bring it up.. The day after I added the borax I tested and it was 7.8, the next day 7.6, no test, and then today it is 7.2/7.0 (very close - so I guess 7.0)..
Is pH supposed to change that much?? My FC levels I have been keeping in the recommended levels and my TA as well..
Let me know your guys thoughts..
Pool is crystal clear just as an FYI.
Thanks,
Tom
