Bi-Carb (Alkalinity)
from $12.00
The pool grade Sodium Bicarbonate (Bi-Carb) we carry consists of fine granules that easily dissolve when broadcasted. When raising your alkalinity, nothing is more effective or consistent than Bi-Carb. Often confused with Sodium Carbonate (Soda Ash), Bi-Carb's effect on pH varies with how alkaline the pool is, making it an unreliable pH increaser, but a pH increaser nonetheless. Monitor both levels when administering Sodium Bicarbonate to make sure you are not messing with the chemical balance of your swimming pool.

- Sodium Bicarbonate will increase both alkalinity and pH, but is primarily used for alkalinity.
- If alkalinity is low, the effects Bi-Carb will have on your pH will be greater. Be aware of both levels.
