Opened my pool this week. Vacuumed out debris, got pump going, water appears mostly clear just a little cloudy. Taylor k-2006 test as follows:
FC-0
CC-0
pH-6.4
TA-140
CH-350
CYA-120? Dot disappeared before reaching the scale

Have been using EZ pool, dichlor pucks and granules for “shocking” the last 2 years.
Looking for advice on what to do first? Get FC up? TA down? Water replacement to lower CYA? Still too cold to swim here but wanting to get things ready to go once it warms.

Thanks in advance.
 
Water temp? Chlorine is #1.

Also do a dilution cya test to get a proper value. If your cya is that high you may need a partial water change.
