High CYA and can't drain

[PoolStored]

Thanks! What shallow surface means? And what’s wrong with that? I live in Seattle. We do have a lot of rain, but i don’t know what does it have to do with draining

It means if your water table is high (surface water, or due to lots of rain), there is a risk of the pool popping up if you drain.

That’s my problem. No one added and we don’t have chlorine generator. How that’s Possible?

Tell us EXACTLY, STEP BY STEP, how you are testing Free Chlorine with your K-2006.

I called Taylor and since the pink never turne in to clear , they recommended using 1.8 pool water in small part and adding tap water up to 9. Then transferred to big part and added R0871 and counted the drops. They told me instead of multiplying by.2 or .5, I should multiply by 2.8

What if we drain half of the water?

they recommended using 1.8 pool water in small part and adding tap water up to 9.

Tap water has chlorine in it.

The FAS-DPD is accurate to 50 ppm.

Please fill out your signature. Include what test kit you have.

If you cant fint the clean out, Run the hose from the pump to the closest laundry sink or toilet. You can stick the hose right in the toilet bowl. Just make sure to secure it so it doesnt pop out.
