Adjust alkalinity to 80-120ppm prior to adjusing your pH.

A 20ppm alk reading will draw your pH very low which in turn is very hard on your skin as well as extremely corrosive to your heater element.

Just use baking soda?


I need to raise TA and lower ph and the stuff to lower ph lowers Ta. What's the method or thread?
TA 20 to 80
PH 8 to 7.2
