Hi all,
I just tried doing the first CYA test on my pool. I have added enough CYA to bring it to 30ppm from Pool Math.
Testing didn't show anything when I tried. Only goes down to 30. I did sort of expect this because there is a lot of splash over from swimming and we have had a fair bit of rain since I put the CYA in.
My real problem is that the standard that came with the kit didn't show any CYA ether. And the amount of water I put in the mixing tube isn't enough to go to the 30ppm line on the viewing tube. The standard should be 50ppm though so it didn't make sense that I didn't see the symbol at the bottom disappear. It does seem to decrease in size but not disappear like the instructions say.
I must be doing something wrong.
Any help would be great
