Hello Fellow Members,
I have followed up TFP from last couple of weeks but this is my 1st post, so excuse my minimal knowledge to pool maintenance but I am learning slowly.
Now the problem I am having is that my PH constantly reads close to 8 even if I calculate acid and add it everyday it keeps rising or at that higher level. Now I know that new pool will consume more acid but I believe it's asking too much acid.
In addition, I am using clear choice kit as that's the only good one available in Australia, my results are as follows:
FC = 3.5
CC = 0.5
PH = 7.8 or close to 8 mostly
TA = 125
CH = 225
CYA = 45
The pool was started 2 weeks ago, pump only and I do manual chlorine additional everyday. No chemicals added except HCL and CYA once.
Is it my low CH level that is not letting my PH settle?
The water other looks great and pool is clear.
I look forward to expert inputs.
Thanks
