Is there chlorine pucks with out CYA. I don't want to get rid of my chlorinator.
Nope, you're not the only one with this problem.

The CYA addition from the trichlor appears to be a recurring issue for a lot of people here. Click on my user name and read the posts that have CYA in their titles. I got some good advice here, and I'm new at this game too.

Lowe's wants $96 for a 40 pound tub of trichlor pucks.
