One last question about my current pool condition. Is it advisable to drain half of my pool and refill before summer starts due to high CH and CYA? My CSI is currently 0.08, suggesting that it's safe @ T= 60 F. The CSI @ T = 80 F is 0.26 which is still safe.
My only problem right now is that since installing the SWCG has a rising pH, which I'm lowering with muriatic acid every week. I've dug through the pool forum and one suggestion is lowering TA to 80, but I don't have a aerator. According to the poolcalculator my pH should lower by ~0.8 from half gallon of addition of 31% muriatic acid, but even doing that my pH only went down to 7.6 from 7.8.
I forgot to mention that in my region it has been recently windy, and this Monday we had a brief thunderstorm. This may have possibly have aerated my pool and raised the pH.
