Dichlor / Trichlor & CYA (and an oddity)

[dgcpe]

Thanks for the quick response.
Yes, Taylor k2006. Received it Tuesday and put it straight to use.
pH is 7.4
I have 54" pool wall and I keep my water depth at 50". My calc gave me 26,670 with that depth. Sound right?

Last question for now, pool solutions.com recommends polyquat 60 as an algecide but I can't really find much on frequency of use. Should I add at start-up?

You don't have to use polyquat. I never do. It's ok if you do but not necessary. Just keep your chlorine levels in range, and you will be fine. That is the key to avoiding chlorine. It doesn't take long with chlorine dipping too low for an algae bloom to start.

Ok on the volume. I figured water level of 48" instead. And, pH of 7.4 is great.

Thanks for the help. Sounds like it will be a cheap startup this year (hurray!).

You're welcome!
