Hi fellow pool friends,
We are travelling out of town in the coming weeks for a few days. During this time, will be unable to chlorinate my pool. Given that I use liquid chlorine, not sure what I should do here. Would it be best to cover the pool, and basically get to shock level right before I leave to ensure it's okay? I have some chlorine tri-chlor tabs from last year which I could use, by, the CYA in them scares me...granted, for four days, I'd imagine it would be almost minimal increase, but, you get the idea. Looking for ideas. There is no one that I could trust to add chlorine to it - so, that's out.
Current pool parameters just because...
FC - 8
CC - .5 - 1 (hard to tell here) - but for sure no greater than 1
pH - 7.5
TA - 70
CYA - 50
