TFP’r Johhny B is here to help me so that should help as we continue this thread; but Johnny B has never faced a high CYA issue
3/22/2012
pH 7.6
FC 0-0.5
CC 0.5? didn’t really turn pink to start with
TA 50
CYA 100+; it was pretty close to the 100line, not distant from the 100 line
CH 50-75, let's say 50
Borates 0
Temperature 72F
Water is clear.
Was using pucks, no more, will start BBB method.
The chlorine & CYA concern me now. Which one to start with?
Leaves & debris are getting removed now. Don’t want to dump chemicals in until the leaves & junk are gone unless you say otherwise.
Start with CYA? Drain some water? How much/many inches?
We’ll start shocking as soon as you guys say.
We’ll keep pH in line
ASAP after shocking we’ll add the baking soda to get TA to 70 unless you say to do so sooner.
Then we’ll get the CH in range.
The cool temperature is saving me now but that won’t last, it's getting hot daily.
And Johnny B has no experience w the hot tub.
Please advise. Thank you.
