Cloudy Pool - help?

[Bfassler]

Our pool is suddenly cloudy. I can't figure out why. Here's the chemical counts:

CYA 40
CC .5
FC 4.5
pH 7.6
TA 80
Salt 3400

We've had our pool for four years and these chemical numbers have always been good. Any ideas?

It may be a typo but is your

Free Chlorine 0
TC 4.5

that would mean your CC is 4.5 and you have no free chlorine

If so, SLAM is in your future

I hope this helps

You are right. Typo. I edited. Sorry!

No issues

you can wait till tonight and do an OCLT and see if you have algae breakout coming

or you could just start a SLAM today, do a OCLT tonight, if you are good and don't lose anything overnight and the cloudiness goes away let it drift down

How does that sound
