    the unit calls for 40-50 CYA level. So I should add conditioner until I get it up that high and don't read it when the water is cloudy?
    PS Thanks for your help. By the end of summer I will not be a newby and understand this water stuff better.
    I have a floating surface skimmer. Krystal Clear Model 637R filter pump. Krystal Clear Saltwater system Model CS8110
    15' round 3.3K gal AG vinyl pool; SWCG; Intex 637r cartridge filter; intex pump; 10hrs; HTH 6-way test Kit; utility water; summer: vinyl cover that came with pool; winter: Take down and store; ; PF:37

    Right--add conditioner until you get it up to the 40-50 ppm level. Remember that the conditioner is slow to dissolve, though--so once you've added it, either through your skimmer or in an old sock tied in front of a return, don't test for it or add more for at least 4-5 days to give it all time to dissolve and register in the water.

    Don't worry about being a newby--that's what we're here for!!
