    Clear water! My challenge is to keep the poor clear of leaves and choke cherries, which are dropping from trees in volumes. What a mess. Thank you, Pool Doc!

    Should I use anything beyond the polyquat and bleach?

    Ben, I'm not sure what stabilizer level means.

    Stabilizer is CYA. What he wants to know is what is your CYA level?
