01:32 - What is pH?

02:30 - pH is an equilibrium

07-58 - Negative logarithm of Hydrogen

08:43 - Let's not try to control pH. Physics is going to raise the pH in swimming pools.

09:50 - Henry's Law of the Solubility of Gases

12:23 - Buy a pH probe to find out your exact pH.

12:37 - Your pH can raise from algae, vanishing edge pools, spas, spillover, or salt cell.

18:53 - Problems occur when pH lowers the LSI and water is starving for calcium
