    Default Current testing results from PS234-Calcium too high?

    I have a IG salt water, 11,000 gallon plaster pool with spa. My water is clear and enjoyable however I am getting white deposits around the edge of the pool(Calcium deposits that are hard to clean off the painted rock formations)
    My current numbers using the PS234 kit are:

    FC 2.0
    CC 0
    TC 2.0
    PH 7.7
    ALK 80
    CAL 500
    CYA 90
    Temp 85

    Any suggestions? Maybe a 1/2 water change? to lower the CAL and CYA. The colrine generator mfg. says the CYA should be 75. We have hard water and I am not sure a water chnge will help the CAL reading.

    Test your fill water first, If it is below 500 then it would be worth a partial drain and refill. This way you will lower the cya also.
