Can we use baking soda to treat swimming pools?
As it is somewhat alkaline, baking soda is a suitable chemical for raising the pH of a swimming pool. Since baking soda has large granules, it clouds up water if used in large amounts. If a swimming pool requires more than a small increase in pH, concentrated soda ash, also known as sodium carbonate, is a stronger alternative.
