So I’m trying to bring my CYA (once again) back up to 40 from 30. I decided I would use trichlor pucks to do this while closely monitoring my CYA levels. I believe a 3” tablet weighs around 7 ounces so I checked the “effects of adding” on the PoolMath and the increase in FC and CYA amounts seem awfully high for only 2-3 pucks. Is this for the entire duration of the tablet (from the time I put it in the floater until fully dissolved)? Obviously the chlorine is going to bounce around a bit from the sun/evaporation/rain/fill water/swimming/etc. but according to the app it should only take 2 tablets (14 oz total) to increase my CYA to 40. Should I cancel my order and just order a couple individual tablets? How on earth do people use these consistently without their CYA skyrocketing through the roof? Is it because my pool is only 7000 gallons?
I bought a 5 lb container not knowing how few of these I need. Anyways, I’m totally confused. Before anyone says anything, I ALWAYS use liquid chlorine. This is strictly temporary so I can increase my CYA and know there is a steady source of chlorine in case it is raining or whatever. Thanks in advance!
