    Sorta right. You need to stop using the pucks altogether. You can save what you have for extended absences, but that's it. Every puck adds CYA and your CYA is already silly-high.

    Agreed. Live by the motto "only put in your pool what it needs to be clear and comfortable". Your pool needs chlorine and a balanced pH, everything else is just to help maintain chlorine and pH. The exception is needing calcium in plaster pools.
