    Chlorine loss problem

    The pool shop test reinforced my home test. Normally just rely on home test, but due to the change in CYA I did a pool shop test to confirm. CYA is 1-2 months old. With the CYA, I did aim for 70, but as per earlier post, I added 2kg of CYA when levels were 40ppm only to end up back at...

    Chlorine loss problem

    I have been thinking that. It is the only thing I haven’t tried. Just need to find a place around here that stocks it. My normal pool shop didn’t have it.

    Tested last night after SWG stopped. Added 4 liters of liquid chlorine (to get to 10ppm). Then tested today at around 9am shortly after SWG started.

    Chlorine loss problem

    Unfortunately I only have the free version of the app so no logs. However, today was the first time in about 4 months for adding salt. I don’t think that I have added calcium in more than 12 months. It is only chlorine and CYA that is a disappearing. While I suspect I may have a small leak...

    Chlorine loss problem

    Just on the CYA levels. In the last 2 months I have added 9-10kgs of CYA. Yet the current level is 44ppm. So something is destroying my CYA.

    Chlorine loss problem

    Below is a photo of the cover. It is made of 100s of cushions all isolated from each other. There was muck in a few cushions that were cut open on the edges, but the rest are still intact and sealed.

    Chlorine loss problem

    Thanks for the above! I missed it before and have been using an old black sock. Is that an issue? The reason is ask is that, my chorinator is not maintaining chlorine levels. Wednesday at 9am chlorine at 9ppm. By Friday night, chlorine has dropped to 5.5ppm. This is with the chlorinator at 6/8...
