Title: what to do?
Post by: Detroiter on February 27, 2006, 01:05:13 pm

lately, I have been experiencing a problem with my cyanuric acid levels....measured with a test strip, they have been very high....150 to 300. The first time it happened last month, I changed the water right away, now, just 3 weeks later, the same problem has cropped up...my alkalinity has been fine throughout this. What to do?

Don't worry about it. Cyanuric acid is there to stabilize chlorine against UV rays. In a spa this is not an issue. The chlorine will continue to do its job with cyanuric acid levels as high as 500ppm.

It will effect your TDS levels, so keep an eye on that.

Good Luck.
