The water where I live is very hard, and in the past (before I took over my own pool maintenance) I had significant issues with scaling. Here's what I've done so far to try and address this:
It feels like I am adding acid way too often. My questions are, what else can I do to keep the balance in check? Is there anything else I can do, or should I just keep doing what I'm doing? Am I wasting my time/money with adding so much acid?
Thanks in advance.
Today's test results (added acid just a couple days ago):
FC: 5.0 | CC: 0.0 | pH: 7.4 | TA: 60 | CH: 875 | CYA: 55 | Water temp: 90F
Pool volume: ~10,100 gal
- Replaced the pool water
- Got the TA down to ~60
- Added ~50ppm borates
