What if your cyanuric levels in pool are above 300?

Cyanuric acid is a stabilizer used in swimming pools to protect chlorine from being broken down by sunlight. While some cyanuric acid is necessary, levels above 300 ppm can cause problems, such as:

- Reduced chlorine effectiveness: Cyanuric acid can bind to chlorine, making it less effective at killing bacteria.

- Scale formation: High levels of cyanuric acid can cause scale to build up on pool surfaces and equipment.

- Cloudy water: Cyanuric acid can also contribute to cloudy water.

If your cyanuric acid levels are above 300 ppm, you should take steps to lower them. This can be done by:

- Draining some of the pool water and refilling it with fresh water.

- Using a cyanuric acid reducer.

- Using an ionizer or other device that removes cyanuric acid from the water.

It is important to keep cyanuric acid levels within the recommended range to ensure that your pool water is properly sanitized and free of problems.
