It’s a play pool, no salt, pebble tech. I think it’s tablets and no idea what kind of filter.
Lots of minerals in the water. I took a sample to Leslie’s and they told me it needs to be drained, which I knew already.
I also need to get the mineral deposits off the tile.
Current pool service is minimal, non responsive and keeps going up, so once it’s drained and cleaned I need to decide on either dyi or new service.

If your chlorine is coming through a stack of pucks, then that is very likely why your CYA is up and you have to drain the pool. The pucks include conditioner and the conditioner is what raises the CYA.
We have been maintaining or pool ourselves for 2 years after going through the same thing you are going through for the second time. The pool services do not seem to have a concern about the CYA increasing.
We now only use liquid chlorine we get from a local pool store. We usually only need to add a gallon a week during the heat of the summer for our 25,000 gallon pool. We keep the PH level with acid but that is not too often. We use no other chemicals.
Also, a Dolphin cleaner is well worth the cost and it replaces the pool service. Our pool is cleaner with our Dolphin than when the service was cleaning it.
