Test kit arrived and the numbers are in. Alkalinity HIGH!

Re: Test kit arrived and the numbers are in. Alkalinity HIGH

Just found this on the manual for the aqua smarte online:
Mark your calendar for the six month replacement of the AQUA SMARTE® Mineral Reservoir and approximate replacement times for the AQUA SMARTE® Bac Pac.
Once wetted, the time-released mineral coating of the AQUA SMARTE® Mineral Reservoir is effective up to 6 consecutive months or one pool season whichever is shorter.
After that time, even if you hear the spent media inside, it is no longer effective and must be replaced.

Here's another thread taking about drilling holes in it and emptying it.

Hmm.. maybe I'll do that to be sure.
