I had in my pool constantly high pH value. Even with the occasional rain showers decreased the pH value. Well I bought the pH reducer of PoolsBest and tried directly. Prima. The pH value directly to obtain 7.0 from 8.0. For this I had introduced 200g pH lower than the dosage float in the pool. Following the phenol red test, the result was right fit. I have to watch how much the pH value rises again in the next few days time. I've read that too high a pH value permanently must be continuously reduced via the granulate (also as with chlorine). Am curious. Thank Poolsbest for the product. Also thanks for the 20g Chlortabs of Poolsbest. They are recommended as well. Fast Delivery. All good!
