How long will it take for the pH balancer to work in a swimming pool?

Answer 1

You can buy PH balancers at Walmart in the pool supply department for less than $7, both to increase or decrease the PH level. Just read the directions for the correct amount to use. It works in a short time. Good luck!

Answer 2

Increasing the pH of the water without affecting the alkalinity is very easy, but there is a trick. With the pump motor on and water circulating, add the sodium bicarb. in the deep end of the pool and work your way around the perimeter. This will raise the pH with minimal effect on the alkalinity.

Keep your pH around 7.6-7.8, not 7.2-7.4. Most "pool experts" tell you 7.2-7.4 but they are using an index that your local water company uses which obviously is not and should not be used for pool. There's a big difference between a water treatment system and your pool. You can't treat them the same.

Answer 3

It will work in the pool intead.

It will help to keep alkalinity and pH levels stable in your spa and hot tub water. pH balancer is not recommended for areas with hard water. And its dosage for a spa is 1 quart per 500 gallons of water. It will also prevent the pH and alkalinity levels from bouncing around.

Answer 4

Depends upon how much you have added.

Answer 5

Until the pH reaches 15.
