I seem to have a problem getting the PH level lowered. I have well water. I am using the Neutral Regulator, but the PH seems to stay at the 7.6 area. I treated two times and no difference.
I looked it up, and seems that I need a buffer to add to the water first and then I can use the Regulator to hold it at 7.0. I hope I am doing this correct.
