My CYA is 80-90 and I'm considering to the water exchange to try and lower it to a more acceptable level. I'd like to be able to have lower FC levels in the future. I've been keeping them high per the CYA chart.
I've read and reread the instructions and bought a 3/4 hp utility pump. My TA is 80, CH 300 and I've been algae free for the last 16 months of doing the pool myself.
I'm confused as to how much water I'd need to remove to lower the CYA to say 50-60. I understand that the pumps can only do so much with a 3/4 inch garden hose.
Any idea how long this will take? I was planning to pump from the pool steps and fill in the deep end using two garden hoses. Am I supposed to secure those garden hoses with a bucket or am I reading this incorrectly. All thoughts appreciated!
