Does Alkalinity Cause pH To Increase Faster?

Before we get too far into this subject and get mod slapped or at best moved to the china shop. I do tend to oversimplify my answers here in the general forums. I do agree with you on the equilibrium point is out of normal pool conditions by the models. The equilibrium point would be affected by other reactions going on in the pool we can’t predict. This is might be one of those situations where the math just doesn’t meet the real world and we have to adjust and measure the result. I do intend to lower my ALK a bit more to around 70 and monitor my acid usage.
