Hi everyone -
As I'm coming up to speed on testing and balancing my pool water, I took a sample into the local pool store to have them test. I was thinking that my core problem was a high chlorine PPM, but while it was higher than I would like, the thing that jumped out the most was my CyA @ 126 PPM. The person in the store said that past guidance would have me drain and refill the pool that that they now recommend boosting alkalinity (my TA was at 42, so it was low anyway) - naturally, they have a product for that
Does this guidance make sense and/or line up with your experience?
thanks,
_howard
