What else can I help you with?
What to do if pH is low?
ph in pool to low said not to use baking soda what to use
How do you fix low stabilizer in your pool and low pH low alkalinity?
make sure chlorine is is at 1-3ppm, if pH is very low raise chlorine slightly higer than average. shock the pool after and run filter for over night. If pool still not stabilize then add PH high chemical.
What causes a PH type wrinkle in a pool treated with Baquicil?
Actually there is such thing as a pH wrinkle, its caused from low PH.
If you have a low pH in your swimming pool what chemical would you add?
Potash
What does muriatic acid do to metal?
Promotes rust and eats into some non ferrous metals However you cant get out of using it if you have a pool and it is nothing to be concerned about as the concentration in pool water is extremely low
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.
We just bought a new above ground pool and have it nearly ready to use. We still have to do the ph testing; what is the average reading we should be comfortable with?
The proper pH level is around 7.4 to 7.6 If the pH is reading, 8 to 14 that would mean the pool has a high pH level. But if you have a low ph reading then your chlorine will dissipate quickly. To keep the swimmers in your pool comfortable and to keep your pool equipment in good shape, it is vital that the ph reading is balanced.
How does the pool pH level affect alkalinity in swimming pools?
The pH level of a pool affects the alkalinity by influencing the stability of the pool water. When the pH level is too high or too low, it can lead to fluctuations in the alkalinity levels, making it harder to maintain a balanced pool environment. Keeping the pH level within the recommended range helps to stabilize the alkalinity, ensuring the pool water remains clear and safe for swimming.
The pH on my pool is low and as I use baquacil what should I add to it?
You would be safest using Baquacil pH Increaser, which is a high purity, highly active dry alkaline product used to raise pool pH. In non-Baquacil pool water, both Soda Ash and Hydrochloric acid are used to raise pH levels. Pool shops are a good place to seek advice also.
If I increase alkalinity in my pool will that increase pH?
Increasing alkalinity in your pool can help stabilize the pH level, but it doesn't directly increase the pH. Alkalinity acts as a buffer against pH fluctuations, so having the right alkalinity level can help prevent rapid changes in pH. If your pool's pH is low, you would need to add pH increaser (such as soda ash) separately to raise the pH.
Cloudy pool free chlorine is not reading stabilizer is low but pH is ok?
Add chlorine and stabilizer.
Why is pool Ph low and chlorine high though you have not put chlorine in for weeks?
Low pH in a pool can cause chlorine levels to appear higher due to the pH affecting the effectiveness of the chlorine. The pH imbalance may also be due to factors such as organic debris or algae growth consuming chlorine, leading to a false high reading on the test kit. It is recommended to shock the pool to address any organic contaminants and rebalance the pH to maintain proper water chemistry.
