Re: Testing cya with 2006
No test can detect a CYA level lower than 30. If it has been two weeks since you last added stabilizer and you still don't have a reading, you can just assume that your reading is less than 30 and you need to add more. I would only add a dose that would add about 20ppm more, though. If your current reading is close to 30, that would put you at around 50ppm which would be a good reading.
Re: Testing cya with 2006
ok Watermom, I hear you but how much do I put in I could put in liquid again and that would be faster but if I put in powder it could take weeks. I don't know how much to raise from less than 30 to 50. Like at 13000 gallon what would be the formula for adding the amount?

I only trust the k-2006 titration is better for me
Re: Testing cya with 2006
Adding 2 lbs. of granular CYA should add around 20ppm. It won't take weeks to dissolve but maybe a week. Or, if you prefer, use the liquid. Faster but more expensive. I can't comment on the proper dosing of the liquid, though, as I always use granular.

all I had at the time was 1.5 lbs looks good but the calculator said add 36 oz more so I did. Should be fine
