I have a newly refinished pool with Diamond Brite. I have been targeting CSI near 0.50 for the first 28 days per instructions to fully carbonate the finish, and plan to eventually let the CSI run around -0.25 for the season as I did last year. But this weekend, I was planning on heating my pool and spa, which would bring the water temperatures up from 70 to 85 and 104 for the pool and spa respectively.
For the spa in particular, the increase in temperature will significantly increase my CSI, and I suppose I should be concerned with scale forming, especially in the heater. At what CSI does this concern become magnified? I am thinking of bringing down the pH so the CSI does not get so high, but this could be problematic at night when the water cools.
Thoughts?
