    Dunno about bleach, I don’t use that in my pool,
    but pH- is just that, a chemical that reduces the pH
    of the water. pH+ increases the pH. <br
    products (and algicides) only work well within a fairly
    narrow range of pH, so you need to keep the pH correct
    by adding pH+ or pH- as necessary.<br
    (also called ‘Acidity’ or ‘alkalinity’) can also lead
    to cloudy, dull water. eye and skin irritation, and
    corrosion or deposits on fittings and pool surfaces.
