My pool has a case of the Mondays...
I just started the BBB method last week (awesome) but am still wrestling with high CYA thanks to those dumb chlorine hockey puck things. My CYA is currently 100 and I'm having to keep my free chlorine at 5 to manage. I feel like I'm running uphill.
So...it appears my only solution is to dump water and refill. What are my options? Should I:
* vacuum to waste 50% of my pool and THEN refill? (12,500 gallons would seriously flood my yard)
* vacuum to waste WHILE I refill for a few hours and see what happens?
* Try to do this in stages? (20% a day for a few days)
Any help is appreciated!!!! Thank you!
