The ideal total acid level for a swimming pool, measured by pH, should typically range between 7.2 and 7.8. Maintaining this range helps ensure swimmer comfort, prevents equipment corrosion, and promotes effective disinfection. Regular testing and adjustment of the pH level are essential for optimal water quality.
Assuming no other complaints you would only need to change water to lower the total dissolved solids level or cyanuric acid level. TDS should be below 500ppm and cyanuric acid ~50 ppm.
The pH level of a pool can be lowered by using a specific acid that is sold at pool supply stores. The acid is called muriatic acid, and it should be added to the pool while the water is circulating. About 1/4 gallon of the muriatic should be added per .1 part per million the pH needs to be lowered.
Use stabilized chlorine only so long as stabilizer level (cyanuric acid level) in pool is within the recommended range of 50-80ppm.
To determine the amount of acid needed for a 27,000-gallon pool, you would first need to test the pH level of the pool water. Then, based on the current pH level and the desired pH level, you can calculate the amount of acid required using a pool calculator or consulting with a pool professional. It is important to follow safety guidelines and manufacturer instructions when adding chemicals to your pool.
Pool coping should be level. If it is "bullnose" brick they should all be about the save height all the way around the pool. A cantilever coping should be level as well. there should be no toe stubbers.

Pool acid typically refers to muriatic acid, which is a common acid used to lower the pH levels in swimming pools. The main ingredient is hydrochloric acid. It is important to handle muriatic acid with care as it is highly corrosive and should be diluted before adding it to the pool water.
Muriatic Acid
Muratic acid or Sulfaric acid
You whip your dick out and pee in the pool.. that oughta do it! :)
No, muriatic acid is used to lower pH and total alkalinity levels in pool water, not to raise cyanuric acid levels. To raise cyanuric acid levels, you would typically use cyanuric acid stabilizer or conditioner.
I think it all depends on how acidic the pool is, if its not far over the level then i think its OK but personally i wouldn't. :-)
