Second year pool owner. Today tested all my chemicals with Taylor test kit. Alkalinity is 140 with a saltwater pool. PH 7.5, salt 3800, chlorine 4, CYA 60, calcium 400 ( we have a well in upstate NY). After logging in poolmath and reading the articles on water chemistry, I am still confused as to how much to add of muriatic acid! It doesn’t state it. I need to lower the alkalinity, can somebody please shed some light on this? Yesterday my Circapool saltwater generator was all lit up with red lights, due to calcium build up. I had to clean the plates out with muriatic acid. It’s working now. Thanks.
