Brand new plaster pool so I have been adding muriatic acid daily so far. My TA has been 110 or 120 every day so I’ve been lowering my pH from 7.6 down to like 7.2 to daily to try to get it to drop a nudge but in two weeks it really has just held steady there.
My salt finally got added two days ago. Yesterday my TA was 120. I added the typical recommended amount of muriatic acid to drop from 7.6 to 7.2. Then all of a sudden today TA is 60?? And my pH again 7.6 today. Makes no sense to me unless the salt did it? I know it’s not really a problem I’m just trying to understand.
Unrelated, I’m doing some quality control on some test strips. I got the aquachek 7 and have been using both those and my Taylor kit daily to see how reliable the strips are. They’ve been pretty good actually so far this week since I got them.
