Hello and CYA @ 240-300

[JimK]

Ok, good.

Remember that CYA=160 is still high. Folks in dry areas have been able to run levels as low as 5% of CYA successfully, but that means a MINIMUM FC level of 8 ppm. Whether you need higher levels or not depends on how much goo gets in your pool -- it appears that in areas like mine, where there's algae in every puddle and on every leaf, you probably need more chlorine.

Sounds like your area is similar to mine. What CYA and FC levels do you maintain (or what % of CYA do you keep FC) in your own pool?

Thanks Ben.
