The Problem: High Cyanuric Acid (CYA) Levels
In the intense Texas sun, many homeowners unintentionally over-stabilize their pools. Cyanuric Acid acts as a “sunscreen” for chlorine, helping protect it from being broken down by UV rays. However, when levels get too high, it can cause “chlorine lock,” a condition where sanitizer becomes far less effective even if readings appear normal.
- The If/Then Logic: If your CYA levels exceed 100 ppm, then your chlorine becomes ineffective regardless of how much you add.
- Our Solution: Puddle Pool Services performs a partial drain sump repair and water exchange to reset your chemistry, followed by a professional pool maintenance plan to keep levels stable.
