I started SLAMing on Monday due to algae growth under a pool cover I thought would be a good idea. Turns out Houston winter just isn't cold enough to take care of the algae. So, measurements on Monday when I began were...
FC 0.4
pH 7.6
TA 70
CH 330
CYA 55
BOR 54
I added 2 qts of MA to bring the pH down to 7.4, then added 768 oz of 10% chlorine. Daily chlorine additions are as follows...
Tues am 83oz
Tues pm 128oz
Wed am 96oz
Wed pm109oz
Thurs am 128oz
Thurs pm 128oz
Fri am did not test
Fri pm 128oz
Sat am 83oz
Does this look right? I'm a little surprised to still be adding chlorine five days into this. But it went down last night. Water sure looks good. Very slightly cloudy in large beaker. Been brushing almost every day and running filter 24/7 since Wed (missed that at first).
