A small of amount of muriatic acid
To raise alkalinity in a spa using borax, you can add 1/2 pound of borax per 500 gallons of water. Start by adding this amount, then retest your water after a few hours to check if the alkalinity has reached the desired level. Adjust as needed based on your test results.
lower it

Yes it does. Some pool management systems use CO2 to lower the pH of the water. Of course if it is used regularly the Alkalinity will soon fall. Michael
To lower alkalinity without affecting pH levels in a swimming pool, you can use muriatic acid or sulfuric acid. These chemicals will reduce alkalinity without impacting the pH significantly. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions and test the water regularly to maintain proper balance.
No
To lower alkalinity in well water, you can try installing an acid injection system to neutralize the alkalinity. Another option is to use a water softener with an acid regeneration option to reduce alkalinity levels. It's advisable to consult with a water treatment professional to determine the best solution for your specific well water.
Add rain water this has very low alkalinity
baking soda
It is used to lower both ph and alkalinity.
To adjust pH and/or lower alkalinity.
Yes, vinegar is acidic and can lower the alkalinity of a solution. When added to water, vinegar can help reduce the alkalinity levels, making it more acidic.
