Hello, I would like to get your thoughts on the frequency of MA additions to my pool. We opened the pool last July and I feel like the PH is rising pretty fast after each addition of MA. I have been adding acid when the PH gets to around 8 and I've been targeting 7.5.
4/12/20 PH was 8 and I added 12 oz 31% ma to bring the PH down to 7.5.
4/13/20 PH was up to 7.8.
4/14/20 Ph was up to 8 (TA 70). I added 12 oz MA targeting 7.5. The TA still read 70ish.
My latest tests of the other levels were as follows: FC 5.5, CH 575, CYA 60, CC .5, salt 3200. Also, my fill water is 7.5 PH .
So, I am adding acid every couple days to keep my PH with the acceptable range. Based on info in other posts, I hoped my PH would be more stable by now. Ive also read that lowering the TA could help buffer PH but I don't know if I should go any lower. Thanks for any advice you could give me!
