What to add

Order matters. Alkalinity buffers pH, so set the alkalinity first — the pH you correct before it will move again when the alkalinity does. Add one thing at a time, let the pump turn the water over, and test again before you add the next. No product page we have read states how long to wait, so we do not put a number on it.
