When I noticed the algae this morning I turned the salt cell up to 100%. Put a bag of fresh and clear (I know I know) and brushed.
I had my hubby pick up chlorine on his way home from work.
I brought the ph down.
Ran a water test with the Taylor kit I bought from TFT
Turned off the sat cell.
Put in The required amount of chlorine and brushed again.
The water looks really good. But I know it’s lurking becuse puffs of it came off the deep end floor (I didn’t brush the deep end floor earlier due to time)
I have a question. The most daunting thing for me is the lights.
I have two lights. One in the spa. One in the pool. At what point should I try to remove them. And is it hard to do? How do you remove them when the CL levels are high. I would think being in the water to do that would be bad on the skin?
My neighbor has this same algae in his pool since last year and never gets rid of it. I dont think he tries to. Just dumps a jug of chlorine in once a week and calls it good.
I am determined not to let that happen to me.
I am bummed I even let it get this far. Life is crazy the last couple months and my mind and energy have not been taking care of things like I should.
Time to get back to a regimen and schedule.
Wish me luck.
