I filled my tub with half soft water and half city water that is really hard.
My beginning numbers look like this:
FC 3.0
TA 200
CH 100
PH 7.6
CYA 5.4 by calculation
Is my CH too low?
My target TA is 65 and by the time I add the 50 ppm of Borates and my CYA gets up 30 by CSI number is:
7.6 PH = -.35
7.8 PH = -.19
8.0 PH = -.06
Also, on a side note... when I've added the acid and let it cycle full air, then check my PH it's always 8.0 or higher. It never really drops during my balancing but check it tomorrow it'll settle in at 7.6 usually. Seems odd...
Thanks -
Scott
