Adding 2 oz. of sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) per 1000 gallons of water will raise the alkalinity 10 parts per million. Despite raising the alkalinity to the desired level in my vinyl-sided pool the pH was not adversely affected. Increasing the pH of the water without affecting the alkalinity is very easy, but there is a trick. With the pump motor on and water circulating, add the sodium bicarb. in the deep end of the pool and work your way around the perimeter. This will raise the pH with minimal effect on the alkalinity.
when ph rises above 7 6 calcium precipitates out of the water in the form of scale or suspended particles that can cloud the water if your total alkalinity is low the ph will be very sensitive and may suffer drastic swings and that can lead to cloudy water on the other hand high alkalinity can help keep your ph fixed at a level that contributes to cloudy water and scaling proper total alkalinity levels are listed below according to pool type
