Hi All,
I've been struggling with rapidly rising CH since my new pool was constructed just over two years ago. Here are my numbers:
In-Ground Plaster Pool 10,000 gallons with startup date of 11/2019. I have a T-9 SWG and Hayward equipment including Acid Feeder and Sense and Dispense system.
Shortly after startup two years ago, a Leslie's CH test showed 275. Now, two years later:
Temp 54
CH: 1125
TA 50
PH 7.7
Salt 3600
CYA 30
I quickly learned to use and trust my Taylor K2005 kit, so haven't used Leslie's since the original CH test. And I use the Pool Math calculator to keep my water balanced... as long as I keep low TA it doesn't seem difficult.
Here are my questions:
1). As long as I keep my water balanced... is there an issue with CH this high (1125)?
2). What could be causing my CH to rise so quickly? I remember after year 1 it had gone to 650 and I was freaking out. Now I know the overall balance is more important, and so I focus on that... but still 1125 is freaking high after only two years!
Any thoughts or suggestions? I'd rather not drain the pool if the CSI balance is all that is important, but I'm nervous about the CH number.
Thanks!
