CYA level during a SLAM

[Johns2k]

I am just finishing up the SLAM process and had a question. To SLAM your pool the ph level is suggested to be below a 7.2, is there suggested level for the CYA? I know the Chlorine level for SLAMing is based off of the level of your CYA, just wasn't sure if there was a suggest level? My CYA was low causing my Algae issue, I have passed my over night test and am raising my CYA level up. Just wanted to check on this during the SLAM process.

Directly from the SLAM Process
Determine your current CYA level with one of our recommended test kits.

• If your CYA is between 30-70 ppm, then look up the corresponding SLAM FC level using our FC/CYA tool and proceed.
• If your CYA is lower than 30, add enough CYA to reach 30 ppm according to PoolMath.
• If your CYA is higher than 70 ppm, drain or exchange water to reduce your CYA to 70 or lower.
