Hello,
I've just started up my hot tub after having fitted a ChlorMaker salt chlorine generator.
I've got my Salt to 2,000, CH to 300 and TA to 75, but my pH keeps going over 8.
And if I add muriatic acid to lower it, it'll lower the TA too!
I know that adding the borates will help stabilise the pH, but I read that you shouldn't add the Borax / Muriatic acid until the pH & TA are at the correct levels, so I can't add them yet.
Is the chlorine from the SWG raising my pH on a constant basis..?
If so, how do I work around this?
My pH was under 7, so I ran the tub for 40 mins with all air jets & waterfall on.
Then it read over 8!
