I learned about CYA from you guys recently. I had skyrocket levels and finally got them down and my pool is perfect now. I was thinking about how over the years I always had trichlor pucks in my feeder, which obviously led to the steady rise of CYA over the time. I noticed "most" pucks are trichlor at the store so I am assuming it's not an uncommon thing to keep them feeding. Considering that you can balance CYA levels and stop raising them why do people consistently use the pucks? I have a container full of them but my CYA is as high as it should be so I am not using anything in my feeder now. I just pitch to keep the chlorine in range and since my CYA levels are correct it sticks around.
Just curious on the point of them outside of an initial rise.
