Dichlor and tricolor add CYA, so unless you could use more in your pool, you shouldn't use either.

Atwoods is 8.99 case of 4 gallons, 10%.

Atwoods in Norman may be your best option. $6.88 for 4 gallons of 10% right now.

That is probably julian date, the 111th day of 2016.

Ah, that won't pay off to visit then. Mine is a long distance from me too but I have family there so I drop in for bleach when I visit.

How about Atwoods?

We don't have chains that do it like that in our region that I know of. Atwoods had a very good sale last week, a 4 gallon case for $6.99. Not sure of price now, but I bet it is $10 or less. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using Tapatalk

Re: Help with multiport valve and spider gasket It's pretty easy to take the cap off the muliport and inspect it. Make sure pump is unplugged and you remember how the cap was oriented before taking it off.

Your chlorine is far too low for that CYA level. I'd try to target 24ppm and not let it go below 20ppm in the pool and see how much that requires you to add each day to see if that will keep it clear and if it's cost effective. If it stays clear, you will at least be able to determine your...

I wonder if more than just the pH can be wrong with FC that high. If it has been a long time since you tested ph when you knew FC was less than 10ppm, I would take a bucket of pool water to the side and test it a couple days after pool gets to shock level. Keep bucket in same sun as pool. Once...

How much will 30ppm of CYA realistically lower pH? How long does it take for it to happen?

Yes, you must backwash and rinse new sand. It is usually in the instructions for the filter.
