    Some algae problem

    Hi Chris, I am all set to start the slam process today. I will run the pump 24/7, and top off to slam levels few times today. However on weekdays, I will be able to do it only twice (before and after work). Will that be an issue? The usual schedule setup with the pentair easy touch is as...

    Some algae problem

    Thanks Chris. Got it. I will perform SLAM. I got the ph down to 7.2 Should I calculate chlorine for CYA 60, just to be over than under? Pool math suggests, I add 460oz of 10% bleach, to bring chlorine up to 24ppm from 12ppm, for slam. Any other suggestions/recommendations? Avi

    Some algae problem

    Since I have some algae on the walls, but the pool itself is not green( water actually looks good), should I get prepared for a possible SLAM? Or just bring up the FC to where it should be and start maintaining levels?
