Loop ph levels

[red eye]

how do you guys adjust your ph levels?

I use mayhems biocide and add a few more drops to get it around 8ph* but what if it’s too acidic?

Normally I flush and replace coolent when it moves to acidic, but I would like to know because I like to know things.
Bicarbonate of soda can neutralize but is it a good idea to pour bicarb in my res?


*i think 8 might be 6?

Only did check ph last coolent change. I was getting green sediment blocking all my blocks needing a change every 2-3 months, mayhems blitz and ph levels has it clear now. It was acidic before the blitz.

I believe mayhems suggested a ph level in a thread somewhere but after filling up with mayhems x1 it turned out too alkaline a few drops of biocide brought it to recommended levels.

I think the sediment came from new xspc rad as I didt have any issues before. I’m still new to watercooling
