CYA increase with nominally pure granular cyanuric acid. Liquid stabilizers are unavailable. This does not determine an appropriate chlorine level or choose a CYA target.

CYA increase with nominally pure granular cyanuric acid. Liquid stabilizers are unavailable. This does not determine an appropriate chlorine level or choose a CYA target.

Use decimals, simple fractions such as 1/4, or grouped commas such as 10,000. Blank or invalid values never become defaults.

Supported calculation envelope: 1–1,000,000 US gallons. Readings: 0–100 ppm. These bounds are not recommended targets; this tool does not choose a target.

Method, supported products, and references

Concentration is approximated as mg/L. US gallons × 3.785411784 × selected ppm increase / 1000 gives grams of the measured constituent. Alkalinity and hardness use calcium-carbonate-equivalent conversion, then divide by the selected product assay. Ounces and pounds are weight units, never fluid volume.

Solid cyanuric acid at nominal 100% purity. Liquid conditioners, blends, and other strengths are unsupported.

Testing and measurement

Start with reliable information

Use a CYA turbidity test and read it in bright outdoor light with your back to the sun.

Keep the product label available, never mix pool chemicals together, and ask a qualified pool professional if you are unsure how to interpret a reading.
