    CYA too high?

    No algae. Pretty much all of the water has been replaced in the last 3 days. Would that cause this?

    I did a full test. Water temp 66 degrees FC-5 I will be adding 102oz or bleach to raise it PH-7.5 TA-120 CYA-65 I have a CC of 1. Should I worry about that?

    Total Chlorine is 3 and PH is 7.5. Water is crystal clear (it is pretty much all new water) Water temp is 60.

    CYA too high?

    I drained about 50% of the water and refilled last night. Re-checked CYA and I am now at 65-70 PPM. A couple of questions about testing method. Do you add the solution to the view tube and as soon as you can no longer see the black dot, that is your reading? Or can you add some solution let...

    CYA too high?

    I'll just drain and be done with it. Good idea on the rain water.

    CYA too high?

    Ok. I replaced about 75% of my water and refilled. I am now at about 110 CYA from 300. Using the pool calculator it says I need to drain another 60%. How much will the CYA drop on its own?

    CYA too high?

    I've added the info. So assuming Im going to have to replace water, how far can I lower the water level at one time without messing up my liner?

    CYA too high?

    Ok, did some more testing. Just to make sure I did this right. I took 5ml pool water and 10 ml of tap water (at room temp), this got me to the bottom of the label on the red cap bottle. I then filled to the top of the label with the reagent. Shook for 30 sec. I then added the solution to...

    CYA too high?

    I am new to testing my own water. Twice I've tested my CYA using the CYA view tube until the black dot disappears. Both times it never reaches the 100 mark, meaning it is well over 100 ppm? It is an above ground pool with a vinyl liner. I would really rather not change out 75% of my water...
