PH Concentration Level 

PH is the single most important element in swimming pool water chemistry. It affects every other chemical balance in pool water. PH is a measure of hydrogen ion (H+) concentration in water. It indicates the relative acidity or basicity of pool water. It is measured on a scale of 0 (strong acid) to 14 (strong base), with 7 being the neutral PH. In pools, a lightly alkaline PH of 7.4 to 7.6 is desirable. This range is the most comfortable to the human eye. It also provides for optimum use of free chlorine while maintaining water that is not corrosive or scale-forming. Image
