Hi all,
I've been reading that for SWG pools, the ideal CYA is 70-80. For bleach pools, ideal CYA is 40-50.
I have a SWG (Viron EQ 25) pool with pH probe only. There is no chlorine or ORP sensor.
Does this affect the CYA ideal level for me?
My concern with raising CYA to a high level is that according to the following link, achieving adequate HOCI levels for disinfection become more difficult.
HOCI/CYA: 2.0 to 4.0 Free Chlorine May Not Work • Pool Chemistry Training Institute
I also read that because of the law of diminishing returns, CYA over approx. 30 ppm only helps by a very small percentage. I read this on the following site: Five things to know about Cyanuric Acid (CYA)
Any advice and information would be appreciated.
Pool details:
