Right. I was just told you didn’t want much CYA for an indoor pool and to not use tabs/pucks as it will raise the CYA and no way to get rid of it for indoor pool (little to no water refill, no evaporation, etc.). So I didn’t add any when I filled the pool with fresh water. And had just been...

Still fine tuning the SWG. I had it at 25% power for 3-4 days and was barely getting 1ppm FC so put it on 24h turbo mode for a day. This was before I slowly added the CYA tho. So my CYA was probably less than 5. After I got my CYA to 20 or 30, the FC was 10. So I turned off my SWG for the last...

Thanks!

Now that I’ve got my SWG up and running in my 17k gallon indoor inground pool with an automated cover, I want to tackle some deep cleaning and need recommendations. The pool is 14 years old, I purchased the house last fall and had many issues with less than optimal care from the previous owner...

Tested CYA again. With my TFT black dot test tube the lowest it can measure is a CYA of 30. When I filled the test tube all the way up, I could still clearly see the black dot. So my CYA must be much less than 30 (probably closer to the pool store’s 5 then?). Added the 99.7% pure NaCl slowly to...

I’m going to test my CYA again with my TFT test kit when I test the water next. I just haven’t done that in awhile because I’ve only been adding liquid bleach.
