Here's the story: numbers have been great so far this season. Last week had alot of usage in pool, 90+° weather, and needless to say, alot of sunscreen use. After having our last swim company over, only two people, I noticed that evening all kinds of kinda whitish gunk floating in the entire pool, and the skimmer sock was covered in this brown gunk. Had my pump running constantly and still didn't clear out. First I thought calcium, then pollen but now I'm not sure. That was Saturday and now Monday evening and it's not as bad, but still getting clumps of this stuff out.i wondered about sunscreen even. I just don't know. Could it be algae with these numbers?
FC-4(I have been keeping a little higher due to kids in everyday and extremely hot weather)
PH-7.5
CC-.5
TA-110(Little high for salt pool)
CH-395
Salt-3300
I am attaching pics if all goes well. Lol. I've read about slimy is algae, gritty is dirt. This is neither. It is not gritty, but soft, like wet dust or something...or, almost like soft foam. At first it was more yellowish brown, now it is more brown. Let me add....it is NOWHERE visible other than collected in basket. Nothing visible on floor, ladder or walls.i have a pool blaster max and I don't seem to get much in the filter bag. I did get small amount first day, but that subsided. I don't know what to think water is clear! Thanks for always coming to my rescue! I TFP!!!!!
