Yes the CYA measurements were from the pool store. I got a CYA of 60 myself before I ran out. Waiting for more reagent but it's not coming until Tuesday. So not sure what to do until then? Understood now about doing regular SLAM first then mustard algae SLAM levels, thanks!

Lol no! I guess I screwed up with the CYA testing and trusting them. But the reagent won't be here until Tuesday. Our local store didn't have any of that unfortunately. Not sure what to do until then? Also I have struggled with that CYA test so how do I know I'm accurately recording that? If it...

Not sure why the CYA dropped so much. I ran out of reagent and waiting on more to test for myself. But the pool store was spot on with the other levels that I tested before I brought it to the store. I'm guessing because we had the autocover off and it was really hot so we had to add some water...

I don't know how the CYA dropped so much. Unfortunately I am waiting for more reagent to come to test CYA myself but the pool store has been pretty spot on for CYA when I've compared what I did to theirs and when I got the test from their store I tested everything else myself before I went and...

We had a small bout of mustard algae after coming back from a trip. Did the SLAM process and got my chlorine up to 40ppm for 3 days (as my CYA was 63 at the time) then I had to leave again for the weekend so I never got to complete the overnight test as my husband was in charge at that point and...

Got back from a trip and our chlorine was low which resulted in some mustard algae spots...a few around the bubblers, a few spots on the steps and a small patch on the floor. Nothing on the sides. Originally I thought it was pollen as our pool was DIRTY when we got back home with random debris...

Is there a test to see if it is in fact mustard algae in my pool? Not fully convinced it's what it is but it comes back in similar spots after brushing and using robot vacuum for the last 3 days. It is only on the horizontal surfaces. You touch it and poof its gone so possibly pollen that hasn't...

Says Hayward TurboCell Cell S340. I attached a pic of our cell incase thats not what you're looking for. Should I be decreasing the Alkalinity?

Brand new pool and struggling to balance it and I guess understand what levels are safe to swim in? 12K gal, IG fiberglass, Autocover, Quad Cartridge Filter, Hayward 1.85 HP pump, Hayward Omnilogic Turbocell SWG, Hayward HeatPro, Dolphin Nautilus CC Plus cleaning robot, Taylor K 2006 Salt Test...

Well I think my husband did it wrong because he didn't read the instructions...He just threw it in the pool and then realized it wasn't dissolving right away so he just sat there and brushed it over and over again until it dissolved. We know about the sock method for next time! Do you think that...

Hello, our pool was just finished a little over a week ago and we are trying to balance our pool. I think we were getting some inaccurate readings at the pool store as one day the free chlorine levels were registering at a 20+ so we uncovered the pool and turned off the salt cell. The next day...
