So to address my staining (it's not severe, just on steps and barely visible on vinyl side) Should I wait until my chlorine level drops to in normal range before I add stain free? It's hot and sunny here today so I feel the chlorine level should drop enough today.
I've been using the bulk chlorine I purchased from Sam's Club instead of the bags of shock. It has chlorine, algaecide, stabilizer mixed, I've been using that for years with good results. I also use the chlorine pucks. I think that was the culprit that caused my CYA levels to go crazy. But from what I've been reading on this site I will be testing my CYA level before I add any chlorine level. I think I understand that if my CYA level is good, I need to add regular Clorox bleach, that doesn't have stabilizer to maintain my chlorine levels. Please comment. Thanks
