CYA question

[aylad]

Yes, your statement is correct in that when you raise your CYA, you can use Ben's chart to determine your chlorine levels.

When most of us get to the point where our CYA is where we want it, we switch to bleach for chlorination--it doesn't add any more Ca or CYA like the other forms of chlorine do.

I use liquid bleach most of the time. When my CYA gets near the lower range of where I operate my pool, I use 3" stablized pucks in my skimmer and when I am away, in a floater.

***Never add bleach into skimmer when you have pucks in the basket*****

Using the pucks later in season cuts down on how much acid I have to add to my pool water to keep PH in acceptable range.
