Water Chemistry

TA - Total Alkalinity 

Total Alkalinity is the waters ability to withstand pH drift.  Pools with low alkalinity will suffer from an uncontrollable shift in pH.  Rain, bather load and chemical addition may have an effect on pH in pools that do not have the proper level of alkalinity.  A test with your strips, or at your local Chemex, will let you know you Total Alkalinity.  Adjusting your Total Alkalinity is accomplished by adding Chemex Total Alkalinity Plus.
