Answer: 7.4-7.6
Explanation: The ideal pH level for a home pool is between 7.2 and 7.8. This range ensures the water is comfortable for swimmers and allows for optimal effectiveness of chlorine and other sanitizers. Keeping the pH balanced helps prevent skin and eye irritation and reduces the risk of scaling or corrosion of pool surfaces and equipment. Regular testing and adjustment are necessary to maintain this balance.
