  1. Thanks Richard for the reply - My PH is extremely low and initial test with the strips indicate the hardness is within spec. The CH levels will not stay up, I can get them up to about 5 ppm for a day with 2 lbs of shock, but they are right back down in two days even with a auto-chlorinator (using chlorine at an alarming rate with no result). Just to be clear - the water did get cloudy but only the undissovled soda ash turned brown. I was raising the PH based on advise from Leslie's from my water analysis Thanks Andy
  2. I had a similar problem. I have a well with very acidic water which I mitigate using Grade 100 Soda ash in a 50lb bag and a chemical injection pump. I have not been completely satisfied with the "dissolvability" in my chemical tank for the well, so I figured I'd give it a shot in the pool which also has very low PH. When I added it to the pool it turned brown and sank to the bottom undissolved and clogged up my DE filter. I'm going to Baking Sode in my pool and chemical tank. Just curious if there was any thoughts on my this stuff won't dissolve and turn brown in a pool. Thanks Andy
