We finally got the new pool filled. However it took a while and with rain we have algae. During the fill we kept chlorine in the pool with some CYA and brushed it every day so the ins't any rings or slimy feel to the vinyl. The pool is clear enough to see sides and bottom but green tint.
Current readings:
Chlorine 6 ppm
TA-110 ppm
CYA - 20ppm
pH - 7.3
CH - 25 ppm
According to Pool Math we should bring shock up to ten (currently 6 ppm) which we have done. My question is the CYA target is 40 and am at 20 ppm...Pool Math notes to add 3 lbs & 11 oz. of CYA--should I add the CYA to that level while at shock level?
Any suggestions appreciated as this is our first pool.
Thank you!
