Add soda ash in small amounts and test. repeat first action.

Muriatic acid works best to lower both pH and alkalinity, but thee's a way you need to do it in order to hit one without too much damage on the other.
While your filtration system is running and the water is circulating, broadcast, (don't dump the product or go too fast), the pool acid, or pH minus if you wish, into the pool starting in the deep end and working around the perimeter. Please remember to use goggles and heavy rubber gloves. If you spill any acid on your skin, it will probably eat through 3 layers of skin before you can wash it off. Remember, safety first.
Allow the water to fully circulate, usually 4-6 hours, then re-test your pool's pH balance.
Make another small adjustment if needed.

How do you lower the Ph in the inground swimming pool?
add a PH reducer chemical
What will result if sodium bicarbonate is used to lower ph in a swimming pool?
Using sodium bicarbonate to lower pH in a swimming pool is not effective. Sodium bicarbonate, or baking soda, is typically used to raise pH levels in pools. To lower pH in a pool, an acid such as muriatic acid or sodium bisulfate should be used.
How could HCI be used in a swimming pool?
To adjust pH and/or lower alkalinity.
How do you lower the alkilinity of a swimming pool?
You have to know what you are doing. The addition of muriatic acid lowers the pH and total alkalinity in swimming pools.
How can you use sodium metabisulfite to lower the PH of your swimming pool when it also neutralizes the chlorine?
No. You will also get a bad smell or odor from your pool water. Where did you get this idea????

How do you raise the pH levels in your pool?
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!!
What should you do if the pH of your pool is at 8.2?
To lower the pH of your pool from 8.2, you can add muriatic acid or sodium bisulfate. Follow manufacturer guidelines and test the pH frequently to ensure it is within the recommended range of 7.2-7.8 for swimming pools.
A swimming-pool worker wants the pool's pH to be 7.2. She comes by to test the water and finds that the pH is 9.2. What should she do to correct this situation?
To lower the pH from 9.2 to 7.2, the worker should add an acid, such as muriatic acid or pH decreaser, to the pool water. She should follow the manufacturer's instructions on the product to gradually lower the pH level, frequently testing the water until it reaches the desired pH of 7.2.
Raise ph in swimming pool?
Soda Ash
What is the Difference of sodium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate for treating swimming pool PH?
No it cannot. Sodium bicarb has a ph of 8.4. To lower ph you would need to use a dry acid (sodium bisulphate) or muriatic acid. City water is normally treated and has a ph of 7.5 but it would take a large amount of fresh water to lower the ph of a pool.
I am using a lot of acid in my pool?
That Acid is called Muriatic Acid. You put it in your swimming pool to lower the PH of the water. At lower PH Levels, the chlorine you use to sanitize the pool is more active, as a disinfectant. You MUST be careful not to put too MUCH Muriatic Acid in your pool! PH that is too low will create potentially deadly fumes, so test your water. Low pH is corrosive to plaster and metal pool parst.
