Way to cool, it looks great. I am a father of four daughters and it's these photos of kids having fun that keeps me here helping when I can.

Thanks for the photo, means a lot.

Great looking pool.
It can take up to a week for the CYA to desolove. I would wait for a week to 10 days.

I would just watch it (CYA) every week and when it's close to your target, stop using the pucks. People forget that when the pucks dissolve the CYA gets into the water faster than when they use the crystal CYA that has to dissolve. So if your target is a CYA of 30 to 50, when CYA reaches 30, turn off the chlorinator and switch to bleach.

It can really be that easy.

BTW, Nice job on the pool/deck combo--it just makes you want to jump right in!

Excellent work!
2 on the chlorinator may be a littel low, if your Chlorine reading keeps dropping then I would recommend slowly raising the input until you are at a point where your Chlorine reads the same. However, that said, low CYA will let your chlorine burn off faster.
I would get the CYA up to the right level, then just add bleach in the right amounts (you'll figure that one out easily enough) as you need to. Rememeber that the hotter it gets, the more frequently you will need to add bleach, don't put this task off til tomorrow, it will bite you you know where.
