Any need to bring the TA or CYA up?

54 degree water temp
pH 7.2 (all year. Kept dropping to that but stayed steady)
TA 50
CYA 20
FC 9.5
CC trace (?) slight pink when I added R-0003. One drop of R-0871 cleared it up.
Water clear as a bell.
winter cover installed.
haven’t pulled plumbing yet.
one quart of Kem-Tek Polyquat 60 added 1-2 weeks ago.

If you are covering the pool then close and deal with TA and CYA in the Spring.

Thanks. Wasn’t sure if the TA and CYa would change during cold months of non use.

You *might* lose a few ppm of CYA from normal degradation, but I can't imagine much will change your TA/pH over the winter as long as nothing is getting in to the pool.
