CYA QUESTION

[sullihouse]

I’ve been using all liquid chlorine for the past 2 months. Now I need to raise my CYA a bit. It is currently 30. Is this ok to use or is there a good recommendation? Also, will it throw anything else off that I need to be aware of? Really taking a long time for me to get the Alkalinity down (currently it is 120 ppm) Pool season will be over before I get that to where it should be

Liquid conditioner is the most expensive and can have problems if you arent using a full bottle. Try getting the much cheaper dry powder from a hardware atore or walmart.

The TA being high doesnt matter for anything except the pH rising, dont worry about it as long as you are managing pH, itll be fine.

Use granular CYA - it's cheaper and easier to use. $48 for 25lbs on Amazon.
