Hi All,
Hope someone can offer some advice.
I am fairly new to my hot tub. I did our first water change recently.
I have done lots of reading in here regarding the bromine system.
I am having trouble with my TA and pH. My TA is always low about 90 and my pH always goes high - 8+.
What is the interaction between the two. This didn't happen the last time.
I thought the process was to raise TA first to around 120 then adjust pH into normal range.
I am able to do this but it just happens every week it seems. It was stable for my first fill after it was new.
As a result of adding balance to adjust TA all the time my TDS are rising fast and will have to change the water again.
It hasn't been used much as of lately as we were away for couple weeks and it has been bit too cold. (-30C at times in middle of Canada)
Can anyone offer some insight?
Bromine levels I can manage.
Thanks in advance, Will J.
