    @mayberry: please don't post in 'mobi-speak' -- no punctuation, capitals or spacing -- it's hard for us to read, and disrespects the effort we put into this. Mobile devices are convenient, but not convenient for us, when users here post in that manner.

    You may raise the pH, but anything between 7 and 8 is OK.

    7.5 is fine.

    No idea about cloudiness -- what is your chlorine level?

    Even a brief period with low chlorine will result in cloudiness, ESPECIALLY if the pool is being used.
