Update: Pool has been looking good! No signs of algae Surprisingly, I still haven't had to add di-chlor since super-chlorinating over 2 weeks ago. I do still have 1" tabs of tri-chlor in the floater.

Today's readings:

FC = 6.6
CC = 0.5
pH = 7.2
TA = 170
CH = 210
CYA = 40

I may get some more Borax to increase the pH a little. Do I need to worry about my high TA level? The Taylor book recommends roughly 4 gallons of muriatic to decrease it by 60ppm, which would drop my TA somewhere around 110. I could also use dry acid, but I don't want to increase my CYA now that I have it where I want it.

What do you pro's do to drop TA without raising CYA (and hopefully not mess with pH)??
