My father used to be the master mind of maintaining our pool but I no longer have his help. I'm not very familiar with pool maintenance other than the basics like backwashing it and keeping it clean.
We have a saltwater pool with a DE Filter that was opened about 4 days ago and it has turned green with algae. It rained a lot the other day and the pool became overfilled so I let out water and I also backwashed it. I also tested the salt concentration this morning and bought enough to bring it up to 3500 ppm but I have not put the salt in the pool yet. I noticed that the the skimmers and jets weren't running so I cleared any debris and backwashed it again and noticed that they started working however after a little while they don't work as well or just stop working. The filter is also at around 32 psi. Any advice on how to get the pool clear would be greatly appreciated!
