Water\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cp\u003eThink of Total Alkalinity as the foundation your pH sits on. When alkalinity is too low, pH bounces wildly — no matter how much pH Up or pH Down you add, you can't keep it stable. Get alkalinity right first, and everything else falls into place. The ideal range is 80–120 ppm, and EZ Clor® Alkalinity Up gets you there fast.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"bbp-alk-price\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"icon\"\u003e🏆\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eStocked Locally in Hughestown\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003e— Fresh, full-strength product.

Because alkalinity acts as a buffer, your pH will often drift back into the correct range on its own once alkalinity is properly set. Adjusting pH first — without fixing alkalinity — is one of the most common and frustrating mistakes in pool chemistry. Need help dialing it in?
