    we have had a day or 2 of rain. filled the pool about an inch a few weeks back. no other chemicals that I am aware of. I believe MIL is following my directions now.
    only bleach @ %12 concentrate and Borax being added

    If the TA of your fill water is lower than 130, then dropping your TA down to the 80-90 range may help stabilize your pH. If the TA of the fill water is 130, though, I wouldn't bother since it would be a never-ending battle to keep it low.

    You can also raise your pH with aeration--putting in a fountain, or a pool full of splashing kids?
