In our industry we try to save money in maintenance costs. One of the ways is by utilizing Cyanuric Acid (CYA) – a chemical generically known as Conditioner.   The special attribute of this granule is that it acts like a sunscreen to protect Chlorine from the deletary effects of solar rays.  Sunlight is essential to life, but it will destroy your chlorine residual in short order.  Thus, a helpful addition to your maintenance routine: insure at least a 30ppm residual of this magic stuff in your water to keep your precious sanitizer from dissipating in a few days.  Whether you live in Pacific Palisdes, Los Feliz or Thousand Oaks, pool service pros make sure that they keep a barrel of CYA on their truck to add as needed - reduced usually by splash out.  If you manage your own pool, get a test kit that can account for this very imporant aspect of cost-saving care.  Or, you can always take a sample to your local swimming pool store for an evaluation if needed.  Clarity of water is a result of simple diligence and understanding. Let us know how we can help towards this goal.
