    Default Re: Bromine Chemisty Question

    Thanks for the reply although I don't know what you want me to keep in my head. Figuring out the amount of dichlor or bleach I should add?
    Anyway, I went to Leslie's to get more MA (they are cheaper than anywhere around here believe it or not: $11.79/2G of 31.45%) and took in a water sample. They have the same pH and FC numbers as I do but again we differed on TA (I said 200, they said 170) and CH (I said 90, they said 150). You said you liked to see comparison numbers, so there you go.
    I added 3/4G of MA to aim for pH 7.0 (I am going to use my OTO for ph because it goes to 6.8 vs the K2006) I will check pH in 4 hours and add more MA if needed. When the pH gets down, I will aerate by 2 fountains and the step spa-jets.
