    Now no cya

    Sorry for late response. Pump runs on low every day for 8 hours. We don’t have much of winter weather in Las Vegas.

    Now no cya

    Thanks in advance for the help of this forum. You got my pool immaculate last year. I have battled high cya and ch being in Las Vegas. I’ve drained and replaced last year and still had high cya. Now I seem to have no cya registering at all. Tested last week and this week. Never thought I’d get...

    I feel like I’m missing something

    I’ll keep that in mind. My TA wants to sit well over 100 it seems. But ph wants to sit around 7.5 since I refilled last month.

    I feel like I’m missing something

    I tested yesterday afternoon after this discussion and came up with an FC of 11. I left the floater in and took it out today. Tested FC again this morning and was still at 11 so it looks like little to no overnight loss of chlorine but the floater was also in. This evenings test is fc of 7.5...

    I feel like I’m missing something

    What to watch while waiting for tat test?

    After following everyone’s guidance with super high cya and little to no cl I decided to order the tft-100 kit and drain my pool last Friday 7-1. After refilling I used the last of my cya regent from previous kit and my results were TC 1 PH 7.5 TA 150 CYA 35 Pool calculator said to add liquid...

    I’ll do the diluted test this afternoon, but it’s already halfway down. Might as well just keep emptying I assume at this point Thank you

    Since water is scarce here I’m thinking 50% drain/refill then slam it? Or what’s the most efficient process? Thank you
