Hi, I'm a new homeowner with an IG vinyl pool and have been lurking on the forums since moving and have learned a lot already. I am now ready to post a first full set of results from the TF-100 kit:

Water: clear
FC: 1.0
CC: 0.5
pH: 7.5
TA: 110
CH: 100
CYA: 90

I've been sanitizing mostly using bleach for the past two weeks but initially used up all the left over pucks the previous homeowner left. It seems I have to pour in an entire 128 oz of 6% bleach every day just to register a FC. Is this due to the high CYA level? Any recommendations would be much appreciated! Thank you!
 
Welcome to the forum!
First you should do a Overnight Chlorine Loss Test tonight to see if you need to follow the SLAM Process. Raise your FC to 10 ppm this evening and then test in the morning prior to the sun rising.
Start to see where you can drain/exchange a substantial amount of water.
I suggest you read ABC's of Pool Water Chemistry.
