    I mussed the last question, sorry. I never used it is why I opposed, but I will check it out. I am draining the pool again. I can't get CYA below 100.

    I stopped at 23 because I know it would be around 70-80 drops the way it was going and I would run out. I will try the suggestion of the CYA test.

    Thanks! I was worried that that the water was too cold. I waited overnight and I can't get a good reading because it is barely over 100, but there looks like a big difference from 100 to 90 on the vial (sp).

    Yes, I have the old cheapo one along with the K-2006. I was attemping to measure the chlorine with the K-2006 and after 23 drops of R-0871 and it didn't clear, I stopped and used the OTO one in which it turned brown/orange. Pool water looks great but CYA is still over 100. Should I just wait...

    I meant CYA test. Does it read higher if cold? The chlorine test, should I be worried if it is still brownish orange?

    I forget, does colder water make the test higher or lower? Could I just wait until spring to drain some water? My "old" chlorine test still goes brownish orange. :|

    Water is actually Blue. The stains on the bottom, I scrubbed and scrubbed and they won't go away. I still don't have my test kit until Monday. Any advice? My filters were supposed to come today, but that will probably be Monday too! It has been raining all day.

    My test kit doesn't arrive until Wednesday next week. So I had dumb Leslie's test the water yesterday at half full and then again with tap water 50% and it was going to be 50 CYA. I had her test it 3 times to be sure. Now at 100% full, a young color blind dude said my CYA is at 120? I called...
