For Part 2 where I bring the pH & TA back up:
How to bring the pH and TA up after an Acid Start Up - Part two of two: [ Ссылка ]


In this video I show you how to do an Acid Start Up on a newly plastered pool. This pool is a dark blue quartz colored plaster. I am using the Acid Start Up by United Chemical. This method is becoming more common and I use whatever method the plasterer wants.

The Acid Start Up is not without critics and some still feel the traditional start up is better. Here is a link that opposes the Acid Start Up procedure:

There are a number of things this article points out and it is valid to note that the Acid Start Up needs to be done correctly. You do not want the pH dropping below 4.8 which will cause damage. How likely is that to happen? Not very. In this to pool to drop the pH to 4.7 it would take 10 gallons of acid - double of what I put in (TA of 150 to start).

I suggest going to: [ Ссылка ] and plugging in your numbers before you begin.

I put in 13,500 gallons -
pH 8.4- 5.4 - as my goal
TA 150
Calcium Harness & Temperature didn't matter in this equation.

So by adding 5.5 gallons of acid I zeroed out the TA and still was way above the danger level of a pH 4.8.

So the steps here are laid out for you in this video and it relatively simple to do correctly.
