Alkalinity?

[savdoc2]

I added a whole box of borax Wed & Thurs. Tonight the numbers look good:

TC = 3
pH = 7.2
Alk = 140
Temp = 58

So the alk is holding steady and pH is safe. Other than a lot of tree seeds in the pool it looks good. We'll clean the seeds up this weekend.

Should I try to get the alk down a little lower?
What is a good level to keep the Cl?

I see in your first post that you say your cya is 40. If that is still the case, a cl level between 3-6 is your target. Alk is fine at 140. Leave it alone. At this point, I think you're good to go. Time to enjoy your pool! Glad we could help.

Thank you so much for all your help. I learned a lot.
