Details: | SUMMARY: LCR Alert-High pH-high flow-Low pH Adjustment DETAILS: The system uses wells, and springs for water supply. The chemical make-up of the wells and springs are much different. The springs have a much lower pH, the excursion was due to the pH adjustment not being able to keep up with demand. ACTION NEEDED: An additional soda ash pump was put on line to aid in adjustment of pH and brought the system back into compliance. |
