From everything I have read and been told the pH in SWG pools always increases and you use acid to lower it to keep it in the range.
The pH in my pool has not notably increased in over 2 months. It sits happily at 7.6 and barely increases. Every time I test it it reads 7.6. It *may* have been 7.7 around 2 months ago and I added 500ml of acid but I did that more to confirm my eyes are reading the phenol red test correctly. In the last 6 months I would not have added more than 2L of acid.
Since using TFP methods it has been like this, prior to discovering TFP and early on in pool ownership it did increase and needed maybe 500-800ml of acid weekly. I am certainly not complaining about it. I really just want to know if this is normal for well balanced water?
Cheers
