Hi. I still kind of new to pool ownership. We got our liner replaced on our small 15f round pool (~4700 gallons). Water is freshly refilled from tap.
Last year I had quite a bit of a problem with high CYA due to the pool store telling me to use 3" chlorine pucks. After some research, I realized that the pucks might not be such a good idea to use since it would raise my CYA levels significantly. However, I am now back to 0 CYA due to fresh refill and want to get back to that optimal 30PPM zone. I still have a bunch of pucks left over and would like to add CYA with pucks instead of buying CYA separately.
From another thread on this forum, I calculated that for my sized pool, 1 puck would up my CYA levels by about 11 PPM, so meaning that I need to use 3 pucks to reach about 30PPM of CYA. However, I just wanted to verify that I am calculating this correct. Would anyone tell me how much one standard 3" chlorine puck would raise my CYA levels in my 4700 gallon pool?
Thank you!
