pH keeps creeping up

[fcfrey]

I don't know why I said "lower pH" I knew that it didn't do that. DAH!!
Thanks Richard,

I checked my pool test log spreadsheet from last year and the year before that and I see where we had a very minimal amount of pH rise last year unless there was rain or "rug rat" activity, but then it seemed to stabilize without acid addition. I will watch it for a while to see where it goes.

I will be discontinuing the use of the Bleach pump for a couple of weeks while I use some pucks to get the CYA up to 30. Right now it is below the capability of my test equipment but I believe it is around 20 ppm. If the pool is uncovered all day the FC depletion goes to around 3-4 ppm so I think a bit more CYA will be in order.

Thanks for your thoughts on the pH, after searching and finding a lot of pools getting several pints a day, I do not feel too bad.

By the way, NO!! I do not add anything surrepticiously that Jakebear is unaware of (See post #8).

I value my life
