What causes the Ph level to go up or down in an above-ground pool?

PH is lowered by acidic conditions such as leaves rotting in the pool or the filter Your PH shouldn't bounce around to much but old water will lose its buffers. When you top your pool up check the tap water for the PH Balance to see if you are raising or lowering it by adding water. A high PH is obtained by adding chemicals to do just that but the area you live in might have very alkaline water which would cause that to be high.

A good way to see if you have a leak in your pool is to # take a bucket and fill it with water from your pool. # mark it at the water level. # mark the pool at the water level. # wait a few days if there is no leak in the pool then the water level in the bucket should have reduced by the same amount as the water level in the pool, however if the water level in the pool has gone down more then the water level in the bucket you have a leak in the pool or in the pipes around the pool.

Maybe - maybe not. Here's an easy way to find out: Fill your pool to the normal level. Mark the water level on the side of the pool with a non-permanent marker. Fill a 5-gal bucket with water. Mark the water level also with the marker. Place the bucket next to the pool. Compare the water levels for a couple of weeks.

I would modify the answer here by putting the bucket on the top step of the pool. If no step find a way to get the bucket partially submerged in the pool water. Reasoning here is that both bucket and pool water attain the same temps. k
