I cannot get my PH to go down. Its at 8.5 plus right now. I keep adding Muriac Acid but it does nothing. Could this be because the water temperature is only 55 degrees? Or do I keep adding the Muriac Acid?
Are you sure you bought the full strength MA? It comes in "half strength" which is advertised as lower stinky vapors or "green", or regular full strength 31 Baum 20% or something like that. If you accidentally bought the half strength stuff you're going to need to use twice as much to get results.
The TF-100 cannot test below 6.8 either so what's going on?
1. Why do you think your reported test results are beyond the limits of the test?
2. DO NOT start any more threads. Keep everything from here forward so we can see your story.
3. Accurate testing has a little learning curve but you should be able to get pH correct.
4, Please read "The "ABC's of Pool Water Chemistry" up in Pool School. It the basis for everything you'll do forward. We'll help but we've got to get you grounded first.
I've been there. I obviously didn't read the labels carefully, so I own that, but I think it's lousy that the diluted stuff is sold for the exact same price.
