PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Low pH (acidic) can cause irreversible damage to pool surfaces such as wrinkling of the liner or etching of plaster finishes. Left untreated, acidic water will also damage pool equipment, consume excessive amounts of chlorine, and cause bather discomfort including burning eyes and irritated, itchy skin. pH should be maintained between 7.4 and 7.6. Ideally, pH should be tested for daily. Essential Elements pH Plus is used to increase the pH of the pool.

APPLICATION & DOSAGE
It is recommended to split required doses into 5 pound increments of Essential Elements pH Plus. Splitting large doses into smaller increments can help prevent temporary water cloudiness, which may arise from the addition of Essential Elements pH Plus. In a plastic pail of pool water, pre-dissolve each smaller addition of Essential Elements pH Plus. Once the product is dissolved in the water, and with the filter system operating, simply pour the dissolved product onto the surface of the water. Wait 2 hours before adding the next smaller addition in the same way.
DO NOT ADD CHLORINE FOR 4 HOURS AFTER ADDING ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS PH PLUS! FAILURE TO DO SO CAN CREATE HARD TO REMOVE STAINS AND SCALE!
SPECIAL NOTE FOR ORDER OF ADDITION OF CHEMICALS: Make pH adjustments AFTER Alkalinity and Hardness levels have been adjusted and water has circulated for a minimum of 2 hours. However, if the tested pH level is below 6.5, pH adjustment must precede any other adjustments required to ensure that the pool will respond to treatment.
