PH Hovering in the high sevens

[cwswifty]

Pool was filled last October and I got used to the PH rising fairly rapidly. Here lately I haven’t had to an adjust it in a couple weeks. Don’t get me wrong, I’m happy about it. Is this expected? BTW, TA has been steady too at 70. Posting the pic because I too have some color issues.

PH of 7.8 is fine.

Knock it down to 7.6 when the color clearly looks to be into the 8's.

What is the rest of your water chemistry?

What is your CSI?

You look good!

I thought so but to be honest I was not expecting PH to stop rising as quickly as it was. Especially since the pebble is still so new. It truly is becoming more of a Trouble Free Pool.

I too have some color issues.

I take a thumb from each hand and block off the value above and below the one I want to compare.




I find it WAY easier to only compare 1 at a time instead of wondering which of 3 is closest.

Thanks dude. Good advice!

I especially had problems distinguishing the color before my cataract surgery. Similar to the dude, I found it helpful to block as much of the scale as possible so my eyes only saw one comparison. I simply slide the slot in my index card up or down and pick the closest result. A quick back and forth is usually pretty easy to yield a result, unlike the optometrist: "1, or 2? 2, or 3...?"

if you want to save yourself even MORE trouble.....



It's high, low, or not time yet.
