MAINTAINING CHEMICAL LEVELS IN SPAS, POOLS & HOT TUBS
So, what’s so important about having a balanced pool pH? When your water is too acidic or alkaline, it can damage pool surfaces and equipment and dampen your swimming experience. Nobody wants to invest in a backyard environment only to watch it fall apart or harm your guests.
Keeping pH levels as close to 7.5 as possible should be your goal.
THE SECRET IS IN THE PH LEVELS
Lower pH numbers mean your water is acidic. This causes damage to liners and plaster and corrodes metal fixtures. Acidic water can also cause skin and eye irritation. Low alkalinity in your pool increases the strength of chlorine, but you will need more to maintain balance which can get expensive.
Symptoms Of Low Pool pH – 7.2 Or Below
- Rough, Dull Ladders, Screws & Metal Housings
- Swimming Suits Are Fading Or Falling Apart
- Water Sanitation Problems
- Itchy, Tight Skin
- Stinging Nose & Eyes
- Pitting & Cracks In Surfaces
- Algae Buildup
Higher pH numbers mean your water is more basic or alkaline. High alkalinity levels can cause unsightly scale buildup, staining on metal surfaces, and cloudy water. Your chlorine will work less effectively. On top of all this, basic water can also irritate your eyes and skin.
Symptoms Of High Pool pH – 7.8 Or Above
- Calcium Buildup On Walls, Filters & Pipes
- Filters Keep Clogging
- Hard, Cloudy Water
- Itchy, Tight Skin
- A Sticky Feeling On The Skin
- Stinging Nose & Eyes
