Speaking of pools, does anyone know how to get total alkalinity up to a good level and stay there without stuffing up your PH in the process?

Sigh you rich people and your pools lol :p
/loud laughter... sobs...
If you have a concrete pool, go the Blu52 route ....... may take 2 weeks worth but it will take and when it does, oh easy heaven. If you have a fibreglass pool, well sorry, enjoy the algae :p
No, it's just a regular chlorine pool with a sand filter. It's fiberglass so the TA is supposed to be even higher than what it needs to be with marbelite pools, but it keeps dropping, and if I put in alkalinity-up, then I have to add acid to fix the PH, and that pulls the TA down again, so I have to add more alkalinity-up, and then more acid etc etc. It's a huge pain. At the moment it's sitting on about 30ppm but it should be something like 120ppm (should be 80ppm in marbelite pools afaik)
