Use Soda Ash to increase the PH level. Baking soda can be used to maintain the alkalinity of the pool water.
Just the opposite!!!! Baking Soda will increase or raise the alk. Soda Ash raises the pH. Muriatic Acid lowers pH.

Baking soda will almost certainly raise the pH level in a pool.
Chlorine will not raise the total alkalinity level in a pool. However, if you are trying to raise the total alkalinity, you can add small amounts of baking soda.
Baking soda will not soften (remove calcium hardness) from pool water. It will raise total alkalinity.
Baking soda is not the best choice as it more readily increases Total Alkalinity. Soda ash on the other hand will do an excellent job. (available at most hardware stores as an acid neutralizer)
Because you're a doucher with a pool.
No, sodium bicarb is used to increase alkalinity. Cyanuric acid is used as a stabalizer. One is base the other acidic.
By adding baking soda, you can raise the pool's pH. Baking soda, or sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) is a base, which neutralizes acidity.
You whip your dick out and pee in the pool.. that oughta do it! :)
raising the pH level of the swimming poolThe recommended pH-range for a swimming pool is between 7.2 and 7.8. To raise or lower pH, alkali such as sodium carbonate (soda ash) or sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) will added to the water. thanks hope it helps you heaps!!
Soda ash (sodium carbonate) raises pH without significantly affecting Total Alkalinity (T/A). Baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) raises T/A without significantly affecting pH. pH levels below 7.0 should be corrected immediately to prevent damage to equipment and the pool surface.
Yes, it is soduim bicarbonate, just like the chemical at the pool store
You can raise the alkaline level if your pool water by adding sodium bicarbonate (aka baking soda). It is recommended that you raise the alkaline in small increments because it is easier to raise your total alkaline levels slightly if its a little too high or too low.
