No... You should not use baking powder instead of baking soda because there is a different effect in the rising of what you are baking and it could possibly effect the taste depending on the thing you are baking/making.
What else can I help you with?
Can you use borax to raise alkalinity?
Yes, borax can be used to raise pH levels in a pool, but it is not recommended for raising alkalinity as it can affect the pH levels without significantly impacting the alkalinity. It is better to use baking soda or soda ash to raise alkalinity in a pool.
How much baking soda do you use to raise total alkalinity in a 20000 gallon pool?
To raise the total alkalinity in a 20,000 gallon pool, you can typically add 1.5 pounds of baking soda for every 10 parts per million (ppm) increase you desire. Calculate how many ppm you need to raise your alkalinity by, and then use this ratio to determine the amount of baking soda needed for your specific situation.
Can baking soda be used to raise alkalinity in a pool that is using a saltwater chlorinator?
Yes, you can use baking soda to raise alkalinity in a pool that is using a saltwater chlorinator. Baking soda is sodium bicarbonate which can help stabilize the pH and alkalinity levels in the water. Add it in small amounts and test the water regularly to ensure you reach the desired alkalinity range.
How much borax do you use in your green pool?
Only use 20 Mule Team Borax without detergent. This raises your PH without raisig alkalinity. Try using the same amount you would with PH plus, and wait 2 to 4 hrs. and check your PH reading. If your alkalinity is low you can use baking soda to raise your alkalinity. Baking Soda raises PH and Alkalinity. Baking Soda has the same ingredients as Alkalinity plus, but half the price.

Can you use borax to raise pH in swimming pools?
The most commonly sold product for that purpose is sodium carbonate, aka soda ash, sold as Ph Up by pool stores and as "Washing Soda" by grocery stores.You can also use 20 Mule Team Borax Laundry Booster (sodium tetraborate). It can be found at many grocery stores. Try using the same amount as you would with PH plus 1 lb. to 10,000 gallons, and wait 2 to 4 hrs. Then check your PH reading. If it's still low, add some more until you get it to 7.2 to 7.8 range.Caution - check your alkalinity before using borax, because borax raises PH only, without affecting your alkalinity much. If your alkalinity is also low you can use baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) to raise your alkalinity and PH. Baking Soda raises PH and Alkalinity at the same time. Baking Soda has the same ingredients as Alkalinity plus, but half the price. Take a look at this web site for more information on Borax: www.poolsolutions.com/gd/borax_20mule.html
What can you use if you don't have baking soda for baking?
If you don't have baking soda for baking, you can use baking powder as a substitute.
Can you use baking soda on the pool?
You can (soda ash is used to adjust PH) but your pool supply store may have a cheaper alternative. I used "Alkalinity Increaser" for a year or two until I noticed that the sole ingredient is baking soda. I have heard since that the only difference is that the kind you buy in the grocery store is finer than the pool version (which is good because it's easier to dissolve). I also buy my baking soda at a wholesale club, where it costs a fraction of "Alkalinity Increaser" at a pool store. I agree. I needed to add 25 pounds of pH plus to my pool. At the pool supply it was $12.50 for 4 pounds. At my local Dollar General, it was 50 cents a pound. True, I had to buy 25 boxes but my son had fun ripping them open and throwing the baking soda all over the pool! It usually dissolved before it hit the bottom! I am told by my local pool, expert that using baking soda in place of 1 or 2 pounds of Alkalinity Up is OK but for larger amounts, it may make the water cloudy because baking soda has larger granules than Alkalinity Up.
