Tips:
  1. Monitor pH Levels: While Alkalinity Increaser primarily targets alkalinity, it can also influence pH levels to some extent. As you adjust alkalinity using Alkalinity Increaser, keep an eye on your pool's pH. If you notice the pH drifting too high (above 7.8), you might need to use pH Decreaser to maintain a balanced pH level. Regularly testing and maintaining both alkalinity and pH levels will help ensure a stable and comfortable swimming environment.

  2. Gradual Adjustment: When adding Alkalinity Increaser to your pool to raise alkalinity, it's important to make gradual adjustments. Avoid adding large amounts all at once, as this can lead to overshooting the desired alkalinity level. Instead, add a portion of the recommended amount, allow the water to circulate, and mix thoroughly, then retest and repeat the process as needed until you reach the target alkalinity range.

  3. Maintain Proper Circulation: After adding Alkalinity Increaser to your pool, ensure that your pool's filtration system runs for several hours. Proper circulation helps distribute the Alkalinity Increaser evenly throughout the pool water, aiding in achieving consistent alkalinity levels.
