Hi all,
Newby. Houston in-ground chlorine pool - not sure the capacity. I have to get off my duff and calculate it. It's somewhere between 11,000 and 16,000. Pebble/plaster. Two years old.
Anyway, I just decided to take a more active role in managing pool chemistry. The 2-year old strips were WAY off.
I bough a Taylor K-2600c and the CYA was off the charts. 4 drain/fill cycles later (1 foot at a time) and it was down to 45.
What was odd: I then corrected TA and CH, which went find, but the CYA went down in doing that.
So I'm wondering if the CYA test reacts to TA and/or CH somehow.
I'm on the right path, I thought I would just leave a note: if your CYA is real high, you might make sure TA and CH are where you want before believing the CYA number, if you're using the K-2600C.
Thanks for all the great info!
