How much do I have to drain to get to a reasonable CYA Level.

Thanks

What test did you use for your CYA?

Drain 50% and you should have a CYA of around 40.

TF-100.

That's a lot of water. We're talking $1500. How much more will it cost me in chlorine?

Where do you get your water from at what rate?

I bought 7000 gallon water truck loads for $450/load. At my local water rate 35,000 gallons cost me about $300.

I'd have to look up my rate, but it's typically $500 every 3 months in the summer vs 300 in the winter due to topping off the pool

Check with the water company. They may tack sewer fees onto the bill based on water usage. If you clear it in advance and say you're filling a pool, they may waive that.

Yes mine does have sewer fees attached. Plus there is only 1300 homes and businesses in the entire water system= high cost. I will check with the water department, good idea. Thanks!

I pay $4.073 per CCF to my local water company. 1 CCF = 748 gallons. 9,000 gallons would cost me $50.

Watering my lawn in the summer costs me lots more then topping off my pool.
