I have had my pool for 5 years and I am still having trouble getting accurate CYA readings. Today I did 2 tests - the first came up as 60, and the second came up as less than 10. Each test was with a new water sample. Is there a better test I can use for CYA? Or can anyone help me get better at...

Good morning! I am having a hard time finding the concentration of bleach in any store. Can anyone tell me how you determine this? Is it possible that the concentration is listed on the bottle in the US, but not in Canada? Thanks!

Wow, what a community this appears to be! I am new to pool ownership, and have read a bunch of posts from this site. I am searching for more specific advice on which test kit to purchase. Thanks!
