Can you please tell me how can I rise up my alkalinity.. it is to low , hp low too And I have cloudy water.. Please help 😢

@diymanual 10 ай бұрын

To raise Alkalinity, you will need to add baking soda. That will also help increase your PH. Your cloudy water can be a cause of PH imbalance or algae bloom. Check your chlorine level. If it is zero then you want to shock your pool.

STEP ONE PUT ON SAFETY GOGGLES OR GLASSES ask me why I think safety glasses or goggles are VERY VERY IMPORTANT! I HAD SPLASH BACK FROM ADDING ACID TO MY POOL WATER BECAUSE ACID IS HEAVIER THAN WATER AND EASILY CREATES A SPLASH BACK ...ALWAYS RUN YOUR FILTER WHEN ADDING ACID.

Thanks for sharing your experience. Agree, safety is number 1. I used to wear safety glass and gloves when I first handle acid but got too comfortable because I have been doing it for 3 years now and just got lazy going into my garage to get my gloves and safety glass. Now, that you shared your experience, I will keep the gloves and safety glass where I can easily access them for future use.

I have a 30k gal Lazy L. Why add the muriatic acid? The purpose? pH?

@diymanual 11 ай бұрын

Muriatic Acid will lower the PH and Alkalinity of your pool. If you have a High PH you will add the muriatic acid to bring it down to acceptable range between 7.2 and 7.8. Hope this helps.

Hiw long does it take til u can swim in water after adding

@kevinscott-bl6sj Жыл бұрын

Wait at least 30 minutes before swimming

@diymanual Жыл бұрын

I always wait at least 30 minutes after adding acid or chlorine to give the chemical a chance to mix property with the water.

@diymanual Жыл бұрын

I just wanted to add. I just bought another brand of muriatic acid specifically for swimming pool and the label says to wait 2 hours after adding acid before entering the water. The previous gallon that I have does not have that information and I usually just wait a minimum of 30 minutes. But I have a small pool and I would use the bucket to quickly disperse the acid after pouring the acid maybe that makes a difference.

Now I have to know what happens if you add water to the acid

@diymanual 11 ай бұрын

I am not willing to try but in my understanding, the acid can become really hot due to the reaction and can splash out and cause injury. I hope someone with more knowledge on chemical reaction can chime in.

@kevinscheifele6833 11 ай бұрын

Will get very hot. Called exothermic reaction. If you added water to sulphuric acid in a bucket, major fume and may boil and melt bucket. Muriatic is much less violent. But you would def get a bad reaction.

Thanks for sharing this information! It's always important to be careful when dealing with chemicals and understand the reactions they can cause.
