(Chem Geek, I thought I would start a new thread here to get away from my old one.) I recently had to clean and drain my spa for the second time since I got it a mere 3 weeks ago. I cleaned with Ahh-Some this time and refilled. My starting pH last night looked to be over 8 and alk was 70. I added the PoolMath recommended amount of pH/alk down. This morning, pH was still at 8 and alk at 70. I again added the recommended amount of pH/alk down. Waited over 9 hours till this evening and pH is still 8 and alk is now 60. I have ordered some boric acid and it is not here yet, but Chem Geek said to get my pH stable first. Should I continue putting the pH down stuff in it hoping it will work? I have not even started the bromine yet as I am trying to get the pH down. Thanks!
