    GreenStory Global Cyanuric Acid

    Over in this thread Pool Opened: High CyA (147 ppm) and FAC (15 PPM) the OP mentioned using a CYA filter from Leslie's. It was pretty easy to track down and they are kind enough to even include the SDS link on their website https://www.greenstoryglobalpoolandspa.com/cya-remover SDS Their...

    Why not copper algaecide?

    Stopped by a friend's today to help her with her Intex pool that went green while they were away for a few days. She asked me about using algaecide, mentioning that they were swimming at a friend's pool and they claimed it cleared theirs right up. Me: "Well, PolyQuat can work if you want but...

    Well this was a first

    Was walking through the pool supply aisle at Menards and saw this: Looks like they are getting a bit fancy with their CYA label. Edit: forgive the bad picture, was on a high shelf and I am a bit short. It says "Chlorine Stabilizer and Conditioner" From my HTC One via Tapatalk

    Are Some Companies Starting to Understand?

    Pool Service

    I have no idea which sub-forum to put this topic, but seems a good place. I am an independent contractor. I work in a bunch of areas and if I mapped it all out probably technically own a few small businesses. I have been thinking recently about getting a few people, along with myself, to do...
