Hello there,
I have a Taylor test kit 2006-c, and I have a question about PH testing. So this morning I did my initial testing and my PH was at 7.8-8.0ish, and I added 4 drops of the acid regent to drop it to 7.4 ish and added my acid dosage to my pool. I ran my pump for 2 hours and re-tested. When I re-tested and inverted the test tube I initially got 7.4, after a few seconds (like 10 seconds) I noticed that it kept raising. I got back to 7.8-8.0. Is this normal? Should I trust my initial re-test or am I suppose to let it sit for a few seconds? I am kind of confused on what to do.
My pool is less than a year old, so it tends to have high PH.
