I used to use trichlor until I was educated by this forum.
With my 60 ppm CYA I now use nothing but pure active chlorine
(bleach or ca - hypo.) Do I still need to lower the TA to 80?
I assume you had a typo when you wrote to lower the pH. and you meant TA.
If this is the case, do I lower TA by simply lowering the pH to, say 7.2 and then raising it again?
