Since opening the pool (equipment was off, no cover), there has been excessive chlorine consumption.
The pool was closed (no cover) over the winter. Opened and there were spots of green algae. Brushed, cleaned and brought chlorine to shock level.
Water is very clear. Passed OCLT. But the chlorine consumption is very high. Been adding more than a gallon each day and keeping the chlorine at 10 ppm to account for the huge usage.
Yesterday the usage was 5.5 ppm. Should we bring up the CYA? I am planning on doing the OCLT again. Any other pointers?
Chlorine is a fresh batch. Tested after addition and it was at the right level.
CYA 50
CC 0.5
PH 7.5
TA 110
CH 175
Thanks
