    Ed,
    Just to keep the threads from getting really long, it is best not to always include the whole previous post quoted in your replies. Of course, there are times when you need to quote a part of one and that is fine.

    Thanks and enjoy your pool!

    Ok, good - so this clarifies the situation for our pool, which is just the opposite - I do NOT want to aerate my pool as it will make my PH rise, its too high already, I want my TA and PH to both go down so acid is the answer for me. It was just explained to me but a bit different route in another thread on TFP and this seals it. Good to know. (BTW, it likely got that high due to 10" plus of rain in the last 2 wks, the salt and the bleach - TA started out on the high end)
    Beats driving to the lake!
