Ok another question . . . is it normal to have to add bleach everyday even though my CYA is 50-55?? I'm mean I'm sure the chlorine goes down eventually with the swimming, weather, ect. but it seems the chlorine reading was good at first after my CYA was where it shoudl be, but everyday now that I check it, it just seems to be getting lower. This morning it looked like it was just 1ppm. I have added a dose of bleach everyday (for my pool that is 1 3/4 cup), and I added about 2 cups this morning because that is the lowest reading I've had to far after getting the CYA up.

We have had a couple of major downpours this week so maybe that affects the chlorine but I'm not sure. My Ph actually has gone up to about 8.2 and I haven't been putting any borax in it at all.

Just wondering what a 'normal' kind of procedure is with adding bleach so. Looks like I should have a min of 3ppm and a max of 5ppm for my CYA level.

Thanks,
Jewlz
