It has now been 6 days since fill of our new pool. The PB added CYA to a level of 20 (according to him) and I have been brushing and filtering every day. I have had a high TA so have been trying to lower by adding acid and running the water feature. My latest results (today) are:
Free CL 4
CC .5
pH 7.9
TA 180
CH 175
CYA 70 (tested multiple times)
I am concerned about the high CYA until I can get the SWCG running in the spring. I keep adding 14.5% Muriatic acid every day to bring the pH down (added 64 oz after this last set of tests). Pool is being kept covered due to wind, leaves and rain when I am not brushing or testing. Looking for some guidance on levels to try and maintain. Thanks.
