I am reading this thread with trepidation. It is a lot to process and I am in Florida too. We are getting ready to convert our 18k vinyl lined pool to a SWG and have been focusing on getting my pool balanced in preparation for the transition. We are purchasing a Hayward system. I am in an uncomfortable discourse with the selling agent/ pool store over how much CYA I need to raise my pool to in preparation for the change. Sent my husband in this morning with a water sample to validate my CYA reading which is lower than I like and to pick up some stabilizer. Agent sent him home with about 1/2 of what I will need. Follow up call with store confirmed that she only wanted to raise my cya to 40. My target is 60. Am I misunderstanding the levels for start up? Prefer to avoid concerns about unknowns. lyn
