Hi all. I’m a new user to the pool math app and was wondering why the ideal alkalinity levels in the app are so low. Recommended range there is 50-90 and ideal range is 60-80. Most other online resources and pool store tests recommend an 80-120 range. Which range do you recommend following and why?

TA can vary greatly from pool to pool and location to location. If you get it anywhere from 70-110 and let it be, it will usually find its ‘happy place’ all on its own.

When it does your PH should need much less adjustment so look to both of them to tell you where they want to be, as long as it’s in range.
