Drain it ... either complete or partial ... that's the only way.

That is our motto in surgery, too: "dilution is the solution to pollution"

Personally, I would only worry about CYA if you are having issues with keeping your spa clean.

If you start having water clarity issues and your CYA level is high, just replace all the water. It is much easier that way.

Don't worry about it until your levels are 500 or higher. At that point the CYA hinders your chlorines ability to sanitize.
