I started using the TFP method last spring and through summer and fall. This winter I had decided I was going to drain my pool and start over with fresh water because I my CYA was too high because of the powdered shock and tabs I had used previous to beginning this method.
So...I wasn't as diligent in the winter since I figured I was going to start over anyway, and now I have algae on the side of my pool. I'm going to drain, etc. here in the next few weeks. Now I'm worried that just draining won't solve algae problem. Do I slam before I drain to make sure algae isn't in filter, etc. or do I still wait until after? Thoughts?
