How can your pool have very high total alkalinity but very low pH?
For most residential pools, this is a trick question. One adds acid to reduce pH and Total Alkalinity. However, as total dissolved solids(TDS) build, say past 2,000ppm, pH of saturation will go towards 6.0. One can measure TDS, or use an estimating rule on when to change water to reduce TDS. To calculate days between complete water change, calculate ( Pool volume in gallons/3)/(bathers per day). For example, you have fifteen swimmers per day. Your pool is about 10,000 gallons. Then (10000/3)/15 yields: 222 days between changes. In a commercial pool, say you may have 100 swimmers per day in 100,000 gallons. Then (100000/3)/1000 yields: 33 days between changes.

Where can someone purchase a TDS Meter?
You can purchase a TDS PH meter at most swimming pool supply stores as well as any store that deals with any sort of caustic chemicals that require PH balancing.
What is the process of Perfect Water in making water?
The Perfect Water company uses a 15-step filtration process to make their water. The water is first cleaned to 0 TDS and then run through a series of tests to find the pH level.
Is Tonic water acidic or alkaline?
The PH level of tap water can change depending on where you are. Due to the fact that water treatment plants use diffrent chemicals which may alter the pH level of 7 that pure distiled water would have (:
What is the difference in Ph of the ocean and Precipitation?
Ocean is more basic because of total dissoloved solids (TDS). with OH Ions. Perciciation is more acidic do to less (TDS) and more H+ ions.
What is pH of ordinary water?

Does boiling water affect its pH?
Adding water will affect the pH. Adding water will shift the pH towards the neutral mark. In the case of an alkaline solution, there will be a decrease in pH.
