SLAM or just alkalinity

[Lucylocket74]

I’ve passed the OCLT but my pool is still cloudy so I’ve continued SLAM. However I noticed my alkalinity dropped from 80 to 50 and I’m curious if now I should focus on that as a symptom of the cloudy water?

Also, I don’t have it hooked up yet by I have a SWG and curious what is the recommended Alkalinity level for SWG for my pool? I have the TF-100 but was told another range listed there was out of date so checking up to date ranges which I can’t seem to find in pool school.

Continue to SLAM. Just test FC until you have a clear pool

I would run your TA 60-80.

Thank you! I actually did see those ranges but didn’t notice I could click SWG.
