Hi All sailing on my own now after a year with a pool company! I am hoping with your help to carry on with DIY!
I am recovering from the rain we had in San Antonio, all the debris is out, but the pool had a lot of groundwater in it! My specs last night were TA 100, CC 3.0, PH 7.5, TH 370, My CYA before this was 200 plus; I have flushed and drained and refilled probably 6 inches in the last 24 hours. The pool is not bright a bit Cloudy'ish but clearing. I know I need to reduce my CYA, despite most pool companies here saying; not to worry if I don't have any Algae problems, which I haven't up to now. I am a little loathe to do a 60% swap as suggested by the calculator, can I do this in 6 x 10% water swaps? I have also read about the Bio Active powder but there are a couple of scary stories about massive ammonia hikes that are really difficult to get rid of! I would consider a RO filter if there was a mobile system in San Antonio but cant seem to find one! Usually the pool is clear & sparkling bright with no issues! Any advice would be really helpful.
