Cyanyric Acid

[verdelgirl2005]

I have been reading my Intec saltwater system instructions and it mentions adding cyanuric acid. I had not read any reviews that mentioned adding this acid; do I need to use this product? I have read that it helps condition the water. Where can I purchase it if I do need it? Is it also known as HTH?

That is what we refer to as stabilizer (CYA). It should be nearly 100% cyanuric acid and can be found in the pool section of hardware stores and Walmart.
