I have a 10'x8' above ground pool. I want to use baking soda in place of bromide to increase the pH level. When adding baking soda to bring up the pH level in your pool, how much do you add to start with? My pH level is way down!

Use 1 1/2 pounds per 10,000 gallons. Read more here:www.hunker.com/
so here's a fun pool volume calculator: www.backyardcitypools.com/
it says a 10 by 8 should be at least 3000, if we average depth to about 5ft (you didn't specify either way)
so thats roughly 1/3 of 10k gallons
so i guess you use a cool 1/2 lb baking soda
Your pool should hold around 3000 to 4000 gallons of water. Therefore, a pool this size will need 1/2 pound of baking soda to increase the Ph levels on the pool.
If you have 10,000 gallons of water in a pool then you add 1 1/2 pounds of baking soda to the water. I would start with 1/2 pounds in your pool and increase it just a bit if the Ph levels are still low.
There are wikis, YouTube videos and more on this topic. I like the wiki m.wikihow.com/
Happy swimming!
