UPATE: After our shocking the pool and adding CYA, we saw our CYA actually go up to 45. That was 2 1/2 lbs to the skimmer. That 2 days ago.

We tested today (pool still covered with solar cover with rainy cool weather) and the numbers are as follows:

FC 10 with the smaller volume test or 8.8 with larger. (why the difference?)Did my husband mess up?
CC 2
TA 80
CY 45 ish..
PH 7.2

(we need to get a refill for the Taylor CYA test)

Why did the CC go so high after shocking and adding stabilizer? Is this normal? The weather will be nice this Sunday, so we are hoping to swim. Husband says the pool does have a stronger chlorine smell this morning.

thanks.
