Raising Alkalinity and Lowering pH in Your Pool

Accuchek 7 test strips are wonderful to use. I use sulfuric acid. Not so harsh.

You make all these videos so clear and easy to understand! Thank you for doing these, it helps! Another thumbs up. 😎👍🏼🏊🏻‍♂️

Thank you for your helpful videos. This is exactly the issue I have currently. Confident I can correct now.

Great information! Thanks for sharing.

Great video once again, always with videos that really teach! Already had bad experience raising the alcalinaty first , for me first drop the ph, then the alcalinaty, but I really believe that every country or state have different rules /water Keep on going 👌

Forced to learn myself. Newbie to pool care. After 6 weeks of a weekly pool guy and 2 different pool repairmen, they thought i was crazy complaining my chlorine level was only 0.1ppm. FINALLY, doing video research, i learned about my problem. Chlorine Demand problem on just shy of 10,000 gallon pool. Where i learned by video it is not even safe to enter the pool at that level. By the way. Had a pool store test water once to twice weekly. Still only suggesting 3 oz of shock. Thanks for all your help! Sorry. My email not working.

Glad I found your videos just subscribed

Excellent video!

Thank you i'm presennt!

Great video, BTW. I subscribed.

I so hope this helps me thank you so much

clear and to the point unlike swim university who is too loud

Thank you!

6/25/22. Alkalinity 40, PH 9.0. Will be picking up some Bicarbonate of Soda later today! Thank you! Already have the muriatic acid.

You are an absolute life saver. Is it better to do it during the day or night or it doesn't it matter?

Add your acid to a bucket, or even better, a watering can. Fill the bucket or can with water to dilute the acid. Then pour the diluted acid around the perimeter of the pool. Much better than pouring straight acid into the pool.

When I get the ph where it should be 7.3 , the next day its back up to where it was (way above 8.0). I have had to put 7 ounces of acid in it four days in a row. It's a 5000 gal. 4 month old pebbletec finish.

Thank you. You are so helpful

great video ! can you also use hydrochloric acid too ? to lower ph ?
