TA won’t go down!

[Laziebun]

For some reason my TA won’t go down!!!

Sitting at 225 ppm

Used about a gal of muratic acid in the last two weeks.

FC 6.0
CC .05
CYA 40
PH 7.4
TA 225

Thoughts or suggestions?

Why are you concerned?

Why are you concerned?

Because the TA is super high…? Should I or be concerned? Worries about kids swimming and damage to the hardware..?

TA will not harm swimmers nor hardware.
Do you have scale forming anywhere?

Normally, if you manage the pH in the 7's, the TA will take care of itself.
The one reason to push TA lower is to reduce pH rise rate, or if you have a SWCG and it is creating scale inside it.
