Should you use baking soda or soda ash to raise the ph level of your pool?

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. k


Where do you buy soda ash?

I'm bird dogging the details as we speak, but search the term "make soda ash from baking soda".....I would come back, but I have a zillion things to do today.


Can you use baking soda in pool instead of PH plus?

yes, it has nothing to do with cleaning your pool though . soda ash raises the level of PH in you pool, baking soda does the same but it actually raises the TA (total alikinity), thereby stabalizing the PH and using less soda ash, you can buy soda ash alot cheaper at a farmers coop instead of the pool store. It has alot to do with cleaning the pool. If your pool has a concrete bottom and you just used muratic acid to wash it for painting then yes you have to use either soda ash or baking soda to neutralize the acid before painting.

The answer is largely dependent on the total alkalinity (T/A). High T/A requires more soda ash to raise pH a given amount as opposed to a low pH.


Raise pH level in swimming pool?

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.


How do you keep pool water good with baking soda?

Baking soda can be used to control acidity in swimming pools. Baking soda controls the Total Alkalinity Soda ash raises the pH or reduces the acidity.
