One other thing to keep in mind is that evaporation and topping off does not cause lower CYA. When the water evaporates, the CYA does not, thereby increasing your CYA concentrations. When you add water to top off, you dilute your CYA ppm back to the original level.
How are you testing? OTO test kit, HTH 6 way drop test, strips or pool store?
