What is “pH” and what is the proper reading for my swimming pool?
“pH” is a symbol that represents the acidity or alkalinity of pool water. The pH scale ranges from zero to 14, with seven (7) indicating neutral conditions, or equal amounts of acid and alkali. A rating of less than seven indicates increased acidity, and more than seven indicates increased alkalinity. The ideal pH rating is 7.5, and maintaining the pH in the 7.2 to 7.8 range is essential for optimal pool water operation.
