So I guess the next step would be to test the water coming out of my hose to see what the TA levels are. If they are high there's not much I can do, but if it's low I might as well lower the TA of my pool. My PH did go up .3 in one day but that was after a heavy rain. Not sure if that matters or not. What would be a normal ppm per day/week change in PH in the perfect world? Thanks
