Having the exact same issue and having been slamming for a while. Filter just keeps clogging and I stopped putting de bc of how many times I've had to take filter out to rinse (I detest this the most as a pool owner). Did you ever get your pool resolved? First time this has happened to me in 10 years. I slacked off 1 year bc we had nb twins and the pool guy laughed when I mentioned TFP and proceeded to do his own thing. Spent a lot of money only to get algae.

Moved from here.

This is typical during SLAM. You are filtering out the dead algae, etc. Note your clean filter pressure. When the pressure rises 25%, clean the filter again.

Don't ever run de filter without de, it'll mess up grids/fingers then you have to replace that expensive part.
