Hello, I haven't been here in over a year because my AGP is crystal clear all the time thanks to what I've learned here. Now, hopefully you can give me some advise for my spa. It has been full of water and covered for about a year :oops: I actually thought I had drained it. Anyway, I sucked...

I know the pucks have gotten my CYA levels too high. It is around 120. My pool is above ground and holds 10,000 gallons of water. Does anyone know how much I need to drain to get my CYA levels back in check? I'm draining it now and it is down about 8 inches. It is 13.5 x 27 feet. Also, if...

I am probably supposed to start my own thread, but I had a very similar question about CYA/algae. Moderators please move me if necessary. Unfortunately, I was lazy and used the pucks for too long this past spring. I started with a CYA around 50-70 before the pucks. While I was out of town...

I'm not sure where to post this question, but... Ok, so "pucks" add CYA to your water and the only way to reduce CYA is to drain some of your water because it doesn't evaporate. Am I right so far? My question is this, "Is there any CYA in municipal water supplies or does it only come from...

Hi! I have been reading about Baqua to Chlorine conversions. I love the pretty pictures and would like to post my own, photos but don't know how. I am totally new to this forum/thread thing, but overall a decent computer user. I'm hoping to convert and become a life time supporter of TFP...

Split off of this topic. JasonLion Keeping posting information. I just started a conversion last Sunday. I've been reading all of the Baqua to Chlorine forums. My water turned rust when adding shock the first couple of times. I've since switched to store bleach and have the typical pea green...
