    Thanks, Yes they are Trichlor. I will fill the feeder up (think it holds around 8 pucks) and check in a couple days. Don't know what I would do with out your advice? Probably be paying the pool guy!!!

    Your good right now, but keep an eye on your pH while using trichlor. It is very acidic and will drive your pH down. If it gets below 7.2, add a little Borax to bump it back up.

    Could not get the top off my automatic chlorinator, probably cause I haven't used it in a year! Can I just drop some pucks in the skimmer basket until I get my CYA up, or do I need to go buy a floater?

    A floater would be better-- f you put them in ths skimmer you're liable to fade the liner right around the faceplate fom the concentrated low pH, which also isn't good for the pump.
