    Huh? Your pool store told you to use 2 gallons of muriatic acid for what? To lower the CYA? That's a first. I don't think we've heard that one before!

    We really are going to need some good testing numbers to be able to help you much. If you haven't ordered the Taylor K-2006 kit like Janet suggested above, you should.
