Good Afternoon,
I decided to add Borax to my pool after reading the benefits of borites. I used pool calculator which suggested 40 lbs of borax for my 12000 gal pool followed up with 2 gal of MA.
I added the 2 gal + another gallon and the PH is at 8.6 according to my PH meter and super pink when tested using my Taylor K2006. I decided to see if dry acid would move the needle so used pool calculator to determine 25 oz should move me from 8.6 to 7.5. I tested 2 hours after adding and IM still at 8.6. My initial TA was 80 and FC around 5. Anyone else run into this issue?
