    Well crap, I thought Borax wasn't supposed to increase the alkalinity much.

    I fought that vicious circle back when I used pucks.

    PH low, raise ph. Find alk too high, add acid. PH low, raise ph. Find alk too high again. etc etc etc

    Turning the jets up sounds easy enough, but won't that affect the way the pool gets circulated?



    Edit: also, how can you aerate that way when you use a solar cover?

    Why BBB? Because money can't buy happiness, but saving it sure can!
