LOCAL DELIVERY OR IN-STORE PICKUP ONLY Soda Ash (50 lb) is a fast-acting water balancing chemical used to raise pH levels in swimming pools. Also known as sodium carbonate, soda ash is commonly used by pool service professionals to quickly correct low pH conditions and restore proper water balance. Low pH water is acidic and can cause corrosion of metal components, damage pool surfaces, and lead to swimmer discomfort such as eye and skin irritation. Soda ash works by increasing pH rapidly, helping stabilize water chemistry and protect pool equipment and finishes. This 50 lb bag is ideal for service companies, commercial pools, or residential pools requiring frequent or large-scale pH adjustment. Why pH Balance Matters Maintaining proper pH is essential for water safety and equipment protection. Why this matters: Prevents corrosion of heaters, pumps, and metal fittings Protects plaster, tile, and grout from surface damage Improves swimmer comfort by reducing eye and skin irritation Helps chlorine work more effectively Supports overall water balance and stability Allowing pH to remain too low can shorten equipment life and lead to costly repairs. Designed for Professional Pool Water Treatment Soda ash is formulated for use in swimming pool water and is compatible with most pool types, including plaster, concrete, and tile pools. Its granular form dissolves quickly when properly applied, allowing for fast correction of acidic water conditions. This product is commonly used after heavy rain, acid additions, startup of new pools, or anytime testing shows pH levels below the recommended range. Accurate testing before and after application is essential to avoid overcorrection. Efficient Application for Large Pools & Service Use Soda ash can be applied by pre-dissolving in a bucket of pool water and distributing evenly around the pool perimeter, or by following established professional dosing procedures. Continuous circulation during application helps ensure even distribution. For best results: Test pH before dosing Add in stages to avoid overshooting target levels Allow water to circulate fully before re-testing Proper application ensures effective pH correction without water clarity issues.
