Did not add stabilizer, wrong term. I wanted to lower the CYA further, but haven't had to. I'm hitting it with Chlorine.

After last nights drain and fill, I'm in the 70-80 area. I'm going to add stabilizer and slam it

So if I follow your thinking there, 20% replacement brought me down roughly 20% in CYA (150 down to 125 or so). So then removing 24" should be less than a 1 to 1 because I already did one cycle. So I should expect maybe a 30% decline? Just under 100 maybe. Jesus, I'll be doing this for the rest...

Over the weekend I've once drained 12" of water and refilled, and then drained 24" of water and refilling now. All from the hose, God help me. Yesterday's CYA registered around 125. We'll see what today looks like after it refills and starts recirculating.

Daltons is $430 per truck delivered to Walpole. Each truck is 9000 gallons. Just spoke to Daltons and theyre nervous about me draining the pool due to the potential of the walls caving in. My plan was to rent a pump, drain the pool in hours, fill that same day. Now I'm going to call a pool...

Well the reason I believe I'm in this jam is because I did fill the pool off the hose 6 or 7 years ago and I've had this metal issue since. Our town water is know to be rich in mineral. The pool water I would buy is very expensive, for sure, but I'm hoping it will save me pain and aggravation...

I used the TF100 test kit to get CYA over 100 (thats as high as the measurement goes), my wife tested with a strip that showed CYA between 100 - 150 (I'm traveling and not at home to see it). It's a vinyl liner. I originally thought it was metal as well, pool store employee said they thought...

Folks, 18x36 inground pool, roughly 20k-26k gallons, sand filter (Hayward S200), 2 skimmers, 2 return jets, no main drain. I had organic staining on my liner and recently learned that Ascorbic Acid would remove it. I applied two containers of Ascorbic Acid and my pool was gorgeous on July...
