pH: The Real Main Character of Your Pool 💧✨
Season 5
Episode 843
Published 3 months, 4 weeks ago
Description
Okay fam, let’s get real—your pool’s pH isn’t just some random number you check because the test kit says so. It’s literally the gatekeeper for whether your water feels crisp and comfy 🌊 or turns into a chemical warzone.
In this episode, Host Sarah chats about why pH balance matters more than you think:
- Why the “sweet spot” (7.2–7.6) is EVERYTHING 👌
- How high pH = burning eyes, cloudy vibes, and equipment crying for help 😢
- Why low pH might look clear but is actually toxic AF 🔥
- Hacks for adjusting with acid, soda ash, and not overdosing like a rookie 🧪
- The hidden link between alkalinity and pH drama (yeah, they’re toxic exes) 💔
Sarah also drops some real talk on how ignoring pH balance leads to big-time repair bills and swimmer misery. Spoiler: you don’t want that.
