Product Information

We’re sorry we missed you; we look forward to assisting you soon. Feel free to leave us a message and we will be in touch as soon as an agent is available. For urgent questions, you can reach us directly at Aerate the water: Increasing water movement through aeration can help raise the pH slightly by releasing carbon dioxide from the water. You can achieve this by running water features, fountains, or waterfalls, or by pointing the pool's return jets upwards to create more surface agitation. Allow sunlight exposure: Sunlight can help to break down and dissipate pool chemicals, which may contribute to a slight increase in pH over time. Make sure your pool gets adequate sunlight, but keep in mind that this method may not be sufficient to achieve significant changes in pH levels. You probably know how many gallons of water are in your pool, but if you've just bought a home with a pool or something like that, you may not know the size of your pool. If this is the case, you might have to do a little math to determine how much pool water you have.

Installing a filter can affect the hardness of your water so you may want to install a water softener. As with all chemical products, instructions and warnings should be carefully followed and heeded. Thankfully Bestway 1kg pH Plus is labelled with all of the necessary precautions and warnings. When buying partner items like this one, your contract of sale will be with our Range Plus Partner instead of us. Test the pH of your water with test strips. Dip the end of a paper strip or the pH meter into your water. The pH paper will start to change colors based on the acidity of your water. Match the colors to those provided on the guide to determine the pH of your water. [1] X Research source It creates a breeding ground for algae. Couple the low amount of sanitizer in low pH water with a warm water temperature, and you’ll have a delightful algae bloom on your hands. Eradicating this green water problem can be a nightmare, as algae can get into the hot tub system as well. Draining the tub, scrubbing it thoroughly, and flushing out the system is your only hope at that point.The pH level of your pool water is a vital element of your pool's overall water chemistry. PH measures how acidic or basic the water is on a scale of zero to 14, with the ideal pH for swimming pools falling in the range of 7.2 to 7.6. When the pH level of your pool falls below 7.2, the water becomes acidic and can cause eye irritation, corrosion of metal pool equipment, dissipation of chlorine, etching of plaster walls and unsightly stains. If your pool pH is low, add pH Increaser at 25g to 50g per m3. Distribute the powder over the whole of the pool surface, starting in the deep end. Make sure that the pump is circulating to distribute the water. Wait an hour or so before testing again. If the pH is still too low after an hour, you can add more pH Increaser. Other factors can be the water you’ve used to fill up the tub, or any chemicals you’ve added to the water. If the water source is acidic to begin with, your pH will test low, and acidic chemicals like chlorine and bromine can also drop the pH. Why Low pH Is Bad News Also, make sure your pool is as clean as you can get it, since leaves and debris will cause it to be unbalanced. Prioritize pool maintenance and if you continue to have issues with your pool pH level, you may need to call in a professional pool service to help you troubleshoot. Use baking soda: Although not completely natural, using baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) is a milder alternative to pool chemicals. Baking soda can raise both the pH and alkalinity levels, helping to stabilize the water.

Plant macroalgae in your tank for a hands-off approach at balancing pH. Macroalgae is a type of plant that gets rid of harmful algae and boosts your tank’s pH levels. Buy some macroalgae from your local aquarium store and set it in the bottom of your tank. The macroalgae remove high levels of carbon dioxide from the water to adjust the water’s acidity. [8] X Research source It will irritate bathers. Low pH water is abrasive to humans. It will sting bathers’ eyes, give them itchy skin, and irritate their nasal passages and lungs. This abrasive water can also cause fading of swimsuit material.By working with a variety of trusted Range Plus Partners, we’re able to offer our customers a wider selection of products. Please note some areas including Scotland(post codes AB, FK, IV, KW, PA, PH, HS, KA, ZE, TR, DD,PH, PA, KY, AB, DD, KW, IV, HS), Isle of Wight, Isle of Man, will need extra carriage. We no longer ship to Jersey, Guernsey or Northern Ireland. Muriatic acid is more commonly used due to its lower price. However, sodium bisulfate is a dry acid that is more safe for handling, as the former can cause major burns, and its fumes can induce respiratory distress if you’re not careful. Our pH increaser is entirely sodium carbonate, making it a highly effective water balancing solution.
