I am awaiting my TF-100 kit. In the meantime, my test strip indicates that I have CYA of approx. 100.
Assuming this is in the ballpark, I should keep my FCC level about 7.
I understand that I can maintain my pool w the high CYA, (while I await my new science kit). it's just gonna cost me more in bleach.
My question is if I maintain FC of 7 or 8 to keep algae at bay, is this twice as potent on swim suits, equipment, etc as a pool with lower CYA and FC in the "normal" range (3.) Or Does my high CYA "neutralize" some percentage of the FC? (I'm nervous about keeping my FC so high.)
20k vinyl pool looks great. I did find some green algae three days ago on the step seams and the skimmer insert seams. Brushed it all off.
