    High CYA after substantial draining

    Refilling now was more looking to see if that pic seems like 75% or more of the water was drained. MI has deep water tables and for once I’m my 44 years it hasn’t been rainy all April/may lol

    High CYA after substantial draining

    I just drained almost all the water using a trash pump. Does this seem like enough of a drain? But like a dope I did not wait for the water to circulate the first time, but tbh after doing this I feel I was no where near the 75%. Appreciate all the help!

    High CYA after substantial draining

    One last question here’s a couple pics. The deep end is 8ft and shallow is 3-4ft. Would the water need to be only a small amount in the deep end for this to work

    High CYA after substantial draining

    Yeah, this was what I was attempting and felt my estimation on the amount I drained was wrong leading to continued high levels when retesting. I looked over the steps, my water in is only gonna be a garden hose. Will that still work?

    High CYA after substantial draining

    It was 90 diluted with the doubled value being 180 and was the same after removing water and filling further up. I was trying to see if there was slight improvement but it read the same. There is algae present as well, but I didn’t think that affected CYA results, not sure if that’s an issue.

    Sorry, reading this I worded it wrong. I drained to the top of the last step not the first. Does that still seem like not enough water?

    High CYA after substantial draining

    Had off the charts CYA, did a dilution test and got 90. Drained down to the first step of 22K gallon pool. Refilled and am still getting the same readings. When doing the test the water is white cloudy in the squirt bottle. I’m also in MI and the water read 55 when I first started the pump...
