CSI math question

[jake556]

So here is my current readings, and the seem to be on the high side. Our fill water in AZ is hard 375 CH out of the tap.

I don’t have Borates or the Salt test so do I leave those blank or do I need to test for them?

Playing with the numbers If I lower my PH to 7.4 it is good, but it seems like my pool naturally wants to be at 7.6-7.8

So what is my best course of action to dial in my CSI? Lower PH and TA then aerate to bring up PH?

I usually keep PH better 7.6-7.8 and don’t add MA until Im up to a 8.

If you never added borates or salt then leave those fields blank.

In your high CH area with high water temperature you need to be aggressive at lowering your TA and keeping your pH around 7.4 to prevent scaling.

Awesome I appreciate it, what would you recommend for a target PH range for the time being?

Any reason to Lower PH to 7-7.2?

With your TA of 120 the pH will not stay there for very long.
