I should be able to get time to get to a pool store this week to let them run the numbers. my cya always runs pretty high so i am figuring i need to keep the chlorine very high also. it just seems like its at a stand still and just won't clear completely. it is just slightly cloudy. i was concerned about the ph, but as you advised i will wait until i get the chlorine and cloudiness cleared before i worry about that. thank you for your quick response!
