    Default According to chem geek's spreadsheet my water is balanced with these numbers

    I know my chlorine is too low for my CYA level. We plan a drain and refill in the fall. And, no more Bioguard after that! Here are my latest numbers (measured myself with a Taylor K-2006):

    FC 3.0
    CC 1.2
    pH 7.1
    Alk 140
    Adj Alk 87.2
    CH 990 (boy this was a pain, but it did change colors at 99 drops)
    CYA 220
    water temp 87

    Langelier Saturation Index (LSI) 0.12
    Calcite Saturation Index (CSI) 0.02

    Not perfect (0), but in the range, and the water looks great.

    I've been trying to get the pH up with Borax but it doesn't seem to budge. If the balance is okay can I just let the pH ride at 7.1-7.2?
