Pool Basics 2255PB Alkalinity Tester for Pools, 5-Pound
Description
- Maintaining a desirable total alkalinity reading is critical to holding chlorine residuals
- PH levels are easier to control with a corrected total alkalinity
- Alkalinity acts as a buffer, improving the ability of your pool water to resist pH fluctuations
Size:5-Pounds Pool Basics Alkalinity is used when pH levels fluctuate widely over a short period of time. A low total alkaline reading is also indicative of corrosive pool water, a blue or green cast to the water and difficulty in holding chlorine residuals. Low alkalinity can cause equipment and plaster damage. If the alkalinity is too low or too high, the pH of the pool water will be difficult to maintain in the proper range. To keep pH level stable and chlorine working effectively, total alkalinity readings should measure 100-120ppm. To increase the total alkalinity level by 8ppm, add 1 pound per 7500 gallons of pool water.

I don't ever post reviews
Like my headline says, I don't ever post reviews, actually this would be my first one ever. They way I received my box was unacceptable. Completely open with the chemicals spilling out.

Poorly Disappointed
I will not be buying this boxed alkalinity Increaser again. The box was not closed well at all. The powder content, which should have been dry, was damp and hard. I had to try and break it up. It never seemed to dry out and I could not break up all of the clumps. This product needs to be in a dry powder form to spread and dissolve into the pool water. I will go back to buying it in a sealed bucket and pay a little more.
