After lots of reading on this forum and on poolsolutions.com, I've decided I don't want to deal with 200 ppm CYA. I've been a pool store junkie for years, and there is no telling how much crap is in my water besides the high CYA. I'm going to drain and refill. I'm aware of the issues with draining (floating pools), but that isn't a problem in my area. I lost all the water a couple years ago over the winter when there was a hole in the liner, and since the cover was on I have no idea how long it had been like that before I noticed it! No damage to the walls of the pool then, so I'd rather pay the $200 for new water from the city and start fresh. Once I have new water in, I'm going to use the dichlor I still have laying around until my CYA is 30 ppm, then switch to bleach. I'll add a little bleach as I refill to make sure I don't get an algae bloom before I can get the equipment running. Is this crazy? It doesn't sound like I have many options unless I want to deal with high CYA.
