Hi there,
I posted last week on Thursday that we had a huge storm here in Texas, and my pool overflowed, and had storm water (with dirt) pour into my pool. Up until that event, numbers were good (FC ~9 with CYA round 65) and water was clear.
Since then, I have been maintaining FC anywhere between 11-19, CYA has dropped to 60 (pulled a bunch of water out) and pH last night was a little high (~8) so I added muriatic acid. CC is 0. I have also been running the filter near 24/7 and have vacuumed and scrubbed the pool numerous times. the water is better, but sill cloudy. It's driving me nuts because I want my clear water back!
So, questions...do I just need patience and let my sand filter do its job? Do I need to SLAM? I really do not think it is algae, but maybe it is? Any other recommendations?
thanks in advance!
