    no slacking here! i keep a log of date, time, readings, and what i added and how much EVERY time i test. this is all documented on a small note pad that stays in my taylor kit. i test for FC every 2-3 days, and PH and ALK once a week. at first i was testing every day, but since ive learned how my pool behaves im able to test as needed and save on reagents.

    i thought i wanted to drop my CYA but i kinda like only adding bleach every few days! even then im usually adding less than a gallon to get me back around 15-16ppm FC.

    thanks aylad!

    Great job with your pool!!

    That's why I like to run my CYA high, too--it sure makes it easier in a full sun environment!!
