11,000 gal salt water pool - Replastered April 2020, added Hayward T-Cell 9
FC 5.5
CC 0
pH 8 - Keep adding Muratic Acid to lower to 7.6 Target = 7.6
TA 125 - Target = 80
CH 225 - Target = 350
CYA 70
Salt 3400
Water Temp 85
I know I need to correct pH and TA as well as raise my CH. But which do I do 1st? Raise CH or focus on pH & TA? Does it matter? I realize that aeration is the best route to go for the pH & TA even though it may take a while.
1. If I am in the middle of the process and can't get back to it for a day or two, will I lose the progress made, or will the numbers hold until I can continue?
2. I have an attached spa with 6 aerated jets. Can I direct all return water through these jets and then allow the aerated water to spill over in the pool?
3. After all the above is accomplished, would adding Borates be of any benefit?
