Would my CYA of 30 in a saltwater pool be a contributing factor? Or is it sufficient?Typical loss from sun is anywhere from 2-4ppm per day. By my math you're at around 11.5ppm so far. It's killing something.
Should I try to keep it at 12 FC if I want to do one more OLCT? Or let it drop to like 6 FC as my low CYA (30) makes it tough to hold on a sunny day like today.You can either call it done or since it's holding the fc very well go one more night olct. Either way your good. Vacuum that stuff and get it out of the pool/water. I would recommend backwash afterwards too then definitely DONE.
That's what I wasn't sure about but I can't agree more not raise it till all algae is gone because cya can make your life more difficult at times. Good luck.You are in Canada? Canada does not have the sun angle Texas does. Keep your CYA at 30 until you are sure you are done with algae.
After drop of 1 FC overnight, no CC and clear water (see above for results), does it sound like the algae is finished off? Should I let the FC drop to normal ranges (FC 6)? And then run a OLCT tonight at FC 6?You are in Canada? Canada does not have the sun angle Texas does. Keep your CYA at 30 until you are sure you are done with algae.
Hi there, I didn't test for PH, only FC...and the PH readings are invalid with super high FC readings
YesShould I let the FC drop to normal ranges (FC 6)? And then run a OLCT tonight at FC 6?
So, to clarify -- don't add any CYA until tomorrow if the OCLT is passed again?
Why are you in such a rush to up your CYA?So, to clarify -- don't add any CYA until tomorrow if the OCLT is passed again?
