"Great Value" Bleach raising pH?
Is anyone else using Great Value Concentrated (8.25% Hypochlorite) bleach? I had been using Stop&Shop for a couple of years with no problems, but switched to GV because I couldn't get the big bottles of SS. Ever since, my pH has been climbing. Prior to this, my pH was steady at 7.4 and would drop slightly after a heavy rain. It is now at 7.8 and my skin feels like a mild sunburn after getting out if I don't rinse off. I am using the Taylor R-0870, R-0871, R-003. My levels are:
FC = 0.0 (I know! Sorry!)
CC < 0.2
pH = 7.8
CYA = 45
TA = 110
