I have been struggling this year with algae, about every other week it seems. At the beginning of June I took a sample in and CYA was like 3. I added some stabilizer and a week later it was 10. I added more and on June 21st it was 41. On June 28th it was back to 11, and I just had them test today and it was back to a 3.
I have only had to add water maybe 3 times to get it back to the middle of the skimmer basket, but each time it is like maybe a half an inch of water. We have not had a lot of rain and are down several inches so far this year.
The store today suggested that I could have a leak. I would think if I did have a leak I would lost more water faster. Further, even if it is a leak, how does that affect CYA? I would figure if losing water, I would proportionately lose CYA. I think it is just evaporation, and would assume that the CYA stays in the pool.
Does anyone have any thoughts?
