Yes, your alkalinity is high, and you can follow the procedures from the "Sticky" thread at the beginning of this forum. Your CH is not that high for a vinyl pool.
Hope this helps.

Re: Should I lower my alkalinity?
I would lower T/A when it's that high, even in vinyl. Target 80-125, but in vinyl, anything below 180 is just fine. So if you hit say, 140, you can stop and enjoy your pool.
