Does Chlor Brite Have Cyanuric Acid?

Chlor Brite
Dichlor contains Cyanuric Acid (CyA), so it's perfect if your pool has low CyA. Chlor-Brite can also be used for hand-feeding your pool.

How much is CYA in Chlor Brite?

Yes, that's Dichlor. And yes, Dichlor will add both chlorine and CYA at the same time. For every 1 ppm Free Chlorine (FC) added by Dichlor, it will also add 0.9 ppm Cyanuric Acid (CYA).

Do chlorine tablets add cyanuric acid?

A chlorine tab has two side effects that most pool owners don't realize: It has a pH of 2.9 but more importantly, it lowers Total Alkalinity (TA). It is 52% cyanuric acid (aka conditioner or stabilizer) by weight and each one increases the cyanuric acid level (CYA) in your pool water.
