Yes. I search this site and found out it could be I am getting air from some where.

Maybe a better word is surging. Plenty of water.

Why would a pump be pulsating instead of a steady flow? Just started last night. Please and as always thanks.

I was Hoping it wasn’t algae. Did my OCLT last night and failed. I have been in a slam since June 2. About 50-60 bottles of 10% chlorine. But I started with a swamp. My fault. Last fall I just didn’t think my pool would make it another summer. Wishful thinking. Thanks

Can you test for calcium hardness while doing a slam? Please and Thanks again.

I did waste first time. Been doing to filter. I just can’t see the bottom yet to know what I am dealing with. Cloudy. Thanks

Thanks. You have reassured me.

I am in a slam mode and have cloudy water. I can not see the bottom. I have vacuum to waste once and have been vacuuming in the filter mode on pump. Is that ok? Yes I have cleaned my sand filter pump twice.

Thanks. When I first started I did once an hour then went to every 2 hours for 4 days and then moved to 3-4 times a day. Doing brushing everyday. Going back to every 2 hours.

I have done that twice.

What are the other things that I might need to check for the cloudiness?

This is what I started with on June 2. Yes I am aware of complete slam process, and will continue.

It looks cloudier in person. I do have flaps and have been brushing. It’s hard to vacuum when you can’t see what’s there. I have vacuum to waste.

Yeah I can se the dot. Thanks

Been in a slam mode for 2 weeks. With all the backwashes, rain, feel like I need to add more cya. I am understanding by reading if algae is still in pool you cannot get an accurate reading. Pool is still cloudy and I started with a swamp. When I started 0 and added to a 30. CYA testing is the...

Thank you

I thought I read somewhere if you have been in a slam mode for a while you could turn on s.w. generator to help maintain slam levels. I due test and dose with liquid chlorine. I am on week 2 with slam but started with a swamp.

While in slam process will the saltwater test strips read accurately? Need to plug in generator to help maintain shock levels during the day.

Thanks. Probably pretty close to 25%.

I am in the middle of a slam. I bought my cya up to a 30 but I have had to backwash frequently. While in slam and cloudy water can I test for cya levels? I used the powder.

My pump is inconsistent with its flow of water, the pressure of water will speed up and slow down.

I started my slam yesterday bought my chlorine up for normal slam. I read article about mustard alge. I started my slam to treat mustard algea. It wasn't until last night while I was reading it again and it stated to first slam standard way and when finish raise chlorine to mustard algea level...

I have just started my slamming. Should I have my sand filter pump on filter or recirculation? Thanks

I have never covered my pool. I wanted to keep my eye on it to make sure it did not turn green. I close my pool according to the recommendation of this sight. About three times during the winter I would get the leaves out with net. Water always stays clear. This year I am considering getting a...
