Lowering the Alkalinity of Your Pool

Cool! Thank you for sharing

My daughter knows about you now!

I had a green pool. 10,000 gallon. I shocked it with 2 gallons of liquid chlorine and then PR-10000 phosphate remover (just like your green pool video). It worked perfect, my pool is crystal clear now 1 week later. But, my alkalinity level is suddenly high. It went from 120 to 160+. I've had to treat my pool for low alkalinity in the past, but never high alkalinity -- this is a first. My pH is fine. Could my green pool treatment have caused my alkalinity to go up? Thoughts? Anyway, thanks for your videos -- they are terrific!

When would be the best time in Phoenix to drain and refill pool?

Thank you for your video. If muriatic acid won't bring my alkalinity down lower than 170, will dry acid be any different? TIA

I will try that soon. My alkalinity is very hight but my ph is very low. What brand of granular dry acid I can get from Walmart or lows?

Quick question how do I use that in a vinyl pool? Will it say the liner or do any damage?

Do I need to dilute/dissolve the granules 1st or just sprinkle around the perimeter?

So doing this will only lower the alkalinity and not ph? I just refilled my pool is Socal and we have high alkalinity fresh from the tap like 150. But my ph is good.

Does it matter if the pump is on filter or circulate?

What kind of brand of Dry granular acid do you use?

Is the Leslie's dry acid the same? because the bucket says lowers ph and alkalinity

I've put 9lbs of dry acid and still alkalinity not going down im using the aquacheck that you recommended

So I was stupid and guessed how much baking soda to add to my pool to higher the alkalinity.... now my alkalinity is at 203 lol So in going to try this, but my ph is perfect at 7.6

WHAT IF IT’S STILL HIGH

So my alkalinity is at 110 and ph is over 8. Will this work for high alkalinity & high ph and keep both from going back up? I keep having to put a few cups of MA a week for high ph. I was told since my pool is salt water alkalinity should be 50-80 ppm. Thanks!

How much do I put in a 8x30 small pool? I added ph down but it’s not budging it’s very high on both. Also can I add this after using ph down? I already put 4 1 inch chlorine tablets, 1 clear balance & 2 pounds of baking soda. So far I’ve added in 3 cups and a half of ph down it’s not working. I’m frustrated. So I’m new to pools. What should I buy to be using in my pool and how often do I use it so I can order what I’ll need. Thank you sooooo much I’m in NC btw! 🫶

I need help, so I bought the 10lb dry acid from Leslie's I've added a little at a time I probably have 3lb left of it. Everything went down but the alkalinity @poolschool
