    Well I am back from a wonderful 10 day vacation. I had somebody add 1.4 gal of 6% bleach Sun/Tues/Thurs. I do not use a pool cover. I turned off the heater.

    I left on a Friday morning with the following numbers..

    FC = 10
    CC = 0
    pH = 7.4 - 7.6
    TA = 100
    CYA = 30
    Temp = 86

    Returned on the following Saturday night to a perfectly clear pool...sparking actually

    FC = 8
    CC = 0
    pH = 7.8 to 8.0
    CYA = 30
    Temp = 105 the temp was set at 110!!

    Fortunately the person adding bleach noticed the pool was getting low and added some water.

    We are still in the investigating stages...but have a few leads...
