Is Chloride same as chlorine?

Most Chlorine is commercially produced and is most widely known for being used within compounds to purify water and create cleaning products. Chloride: The negatively charged ionic form of Chlorine. Chloride is what is created when Chlorine gains an electron and combines with other elements.

Chlorine can be found in abundance in both the Earth’s crust and in ocean water. In the ocean, chlorine is found as part of the compound sodium chloride (NaCl), also known as table salt. In the Earth’s crust, the most common minerals containing chlorine include halite (NaCl), carnallite, and sylvite (KCl).

Will raising pH lower chlorine?

Extreme pH changes can also affect how the chlorine works in your pool. Chlorine works most efficiently in water with a neutral pH level between 7.4-7.6. If you’re continuing to struggle with balancing the alkaline and acid in your pH levels, lower your pH levels by adding sodium bisulfate or muriatic acid.

Why won’t the pH in my pool go up?

Because pH is such an unstable factor, many things can affect it. But when it’s low, it is usually caused by things like rainwater or debris getting into your pool. Total alkalinity is sort of the stabilizing factor for pH, so it’s important to test this level every time you test your pH levels.
