adjusting the pH of pool water Follow the link below
pH measures the level of acidity or basicity in the water. Should be 7.2-7.8
pH is the comfort level of the water. The pH level of water ranges from 0-14. 7 being neutral. Too high pH and the chlorine becomes less active, too low pH and the water is acidic. Keep your pH between 7.6-7.8 and you'll be fine.Good luckRobert
You can lower the PH level by using this stuff called PH Down. Go to a local pool store and ask about it.
High chlorine levels will make the pH in your pool high. You can add borates to help stabilize the pH level in your pool.
The pH level of a pool can be lowered by using a specific acid that is sold at pool supply stores. The acid is called muriatic acid, and it should be added to the pool while the water is circulating. About 1/4 gallon of the muriatic should be added per .1 part per million the pH needs to be lowered.
Your pool water turned green immediately after adding pH Plus because the chemical had increased the pH level to high. You may need to adjust the alkalinity levels of the water using another pool chemical such as pH Minus of pH Alkalinity Plus.
Test the water, then adjust your Ph to about 7.2. Then chlorinate.
No
You can check the water Ph level in a pool by using specially designed test strips. You can purchase these strips at most major retail chains such as Walmart, Target, or Sears.

After your pool is clear again, test the Ph of the water. You can purchase a test kit at your local pool or home and garden supply store. When the Ph of the water is at a safe level, you can dive in.
The proper pH level is 7.2-7.5

You can add powdered lime or wood ash, depending on how you're trying to adjust it.
Swimming pool buffer is a type of chemical treatment used to adjust the pH balance of the water. It helps to maintain proper water conditions which are ideal for swimming.

To shock the pool, about a gallon. To just chlorinate, a quarter gallon, then measure the chlorine level with an OTO test kit. Keep the chlorine level between 1-3 PPM, and the pH at 7.2. You can adjust pH with plain old baking soda if the pH is too low, or add a little muriatic acid if the pH is too high.
