Hi,
I've had my pool about 6 months now, and today the TA measured 40 ppm (it had been around 60-70 previously). To be conservative and not overshoot, I figured I'd bring it up to 70 ppm, but that's still 7 lb of sodium bicarbonate according to the container. What is the best way to add it? Do I need to go fill up 10 socks like adding CYA, or does it dissolve easily enough I can just sprinkle it in and no big deal if some settles to the bottom?
Just curious, the drop in TA occurred at the same time I switched from trichlor tablets to liquid chlorine. Are the two related?
Thanks,
Matt
