Hi thanks for responding. I'm using Taylor test kit. So far this year the pool don't smell bleachy. My numbers are ph 8.0 cl 6 alk 140. My ph is rising it seems whenever I add bleach. I'll add MA the cl within a couple days will drop then I'll need to add bleach then my ph is back up. It's a circle. What can I do to keep my ph stable when adding bleach?
