Contrary to pool industry literature, there's nothing wrong with running a HiC2 pool, if you understand what you're doing.

Algae has been a slight problem. I think only because I didn't know what I was doing, not knowing about CYA, until just recently. If my water cost estimate is close, I'll go ahead with the drain/refill because I want the chemistry to be right, and to try to get rid of the scale.
