You're right... no bubbles! It started raining really hard here today so I'm waiting a couple more days to test the water again.
No worries. You have to wait to test that CYA anyway. Can you test your pH ASAP, though? It was high before...
I'm running it high on purpose. I'm hoping that the high acidity will help prevent the buildup issue. I'll lower it when pool season arrived
Doesn't high pH encourage scaling?
When you say "high acidity", you mean high pH, right? High acidity would be low pH.
I'm probably totally confused as to how Ph relates to the amount of acid in the pool. I want more than normal amounts of acid. Is that lower Ph? I thought it was higher Ph. :-(
The lower the pH, the more acidic the water becomes. The higher the pH, the more alkaline it becomes. pH of 7 is neutral.
