    Richard,
    Without trying to hi-jack this thread, I would like clarifcation one of your previous posts. You mentioned that

    "A low TA (adjusted for CYA) could help explain your lack of pH rise"

    Where can I find info on this adjustment and does my Taylor K2005 measurement already include this adjustment.

    Thanks
    Carl

    The CYA adjustment forumula is included in the back inside page of the booklet that came with your Taylor kit. To simplyfy it just subtract 1/3 of your CYA reading from your TA reading if your pH is between 7.4 to 8.2 and subtract 1/4 of your CYA reading from the TA reading if your pH is 7.0 to 7.2. The result with give you your adjusted TA. It will be close enough!
