Visible algae and 0 FC

Welcome to TFP.

What test kit do you have?

The SLAM Process is our method to deal with algae.

Your CYA is high and your FC and pH are low. How do you chlorinate your pool?

my CYA is too high to do SLAM. Should I drain water?

You can do the SLAM Process with a CYA of 80. Your SLAM FC level is 31. See ...


Draining your pool down to CYA 30-40 will lower your chlorine requirement.

I asked you before - how do you chlorinate your pool?
 
Hi Elizabeth,
Sounds like you need to get a SLAM going asap. Click on the link that Allen provided up above and follow the steps. In the future I would recommend testing your water more frequently so your free chlorine level doesn't drop below your target. Good luck and post back to let us know how you're doing.
