Why does your salt water pool taste bitter?
A Salt water swimming pool, like the iceberg in Sydney. hmmm.... A Salt Water Beach! or a pool in wich someone wurinated in! A: Your answer is old pool water. You will not taste the salt in a salt water system pool! k
Why would a salt water swimming pool turn blonde hair green?
It is not the salt water pool or the salt water that is turning your hair green. It is a poorly maintained pool with a chemical imbalance - pH and total alkalinity out of required parameters.
Is salt with sodium used for swimming pool?
Sodium Carbonate is the PH+ element
How do you raise the Ph in a salt water pool if soda ash only raises the alkalinity?
Soda ash raises both alkalinity and pH in fresh water; I would assume the same in salt.
Why does your pool's PH keep increasing?
Gunite and plaster have a high demand for acid because of the lime in the cement. And or high calcium make up water. k Your pool will naturally increase in pH due to swimmer's waste, sweat, urine, etc... Keep your pH at 7.6-7.8, not 7.2. 7.2 pH is base upon the Langelier Index which was used for local water companies, but there's a world of difference between pools and how the water company treats your tap water. Good index but bad application for pools.
Do you still need to add pH calcium alkaline chemicals to a salt water pool as the same as a chlorine pool?
Yes you still need to control the PH of your water weather it is a salt water pool or chlorine tablet pool. with salt water pools the chlorine produced by the chlorine generator is more dependant on a lower pH, around 7.2 to 7.6 if pH goes to high the chlorine gets locked up and cant work. you can find more detailed information on our web site at www.cristal-clear-pools.com. hope this helps you.
What should be done to clear the pool purchased a salt water pump for the pool now have to much pH in the pool what do you suggest we use to clear our pool water?
Muratic acid or Sulfaric acid
With the exception if the salt itself...can the Ph level in a salt water pool cause you to itch?
Yes, it is definitely a possibility. Salt will have no connection to the itching problem.
Can you use muriatic acid in a salt water pool?
Disclaimer: I know next to nothing about fish. That said: if you want to lower the pH, muriatic acid will certainly do so, and it won't introduce any ions to a salt water pool that aren't there already (it will increase chloride ion concentration, which may or may not matter; it will also increase hydronium ion concentration, but that's the whole point).
Will a brass fountain standing in a pool affect the pH level in a salt water pool?
Is the fountain Solid Brass or Chrome-Plated Brass?
Does salt water have a pH?
"Does Salt Change the pH of Water?It depends upon the pH of the water into which the salt is being introduced. Chemically speaking, salt is a basecompound, falling smack in the center of the acid-alkaline spectrum (at 7). If introduced to water which has a high pH, the pH might be lowered incrementally toward the center of the pH spectrum depending on how much water there was and how much salt was introduced. If the water had a very low pH, making it very acidic, the salt would increase the pH toward the center of the spectrum."
What chemicals does a pool supply company use?
This depends on what the pool supply company is working on. Some chemicals can include chlorine, or even simple rock salt for salt water pools. They have to balance the pH of each pool.
