- 95
Ready to start taking my pool seriously again for the season here in FL, I tested today and here are my results:
FC - 1
PH - 8++
TA - 120
CYA - 75
I know that when I add acid to lower the pH it will lower the TA so I am not too concerned about that...but the CYA is on the rise maybe as high as 80ppm, not a good way to start the season so I am thinking time for a partial water change? Maybe there was not enough sun this winter to consume enough CYA? We use Trichlor tablets in a chlorinator, so the CYA:Chlorine ratio is out of order.
Suggestions?
