    Stain in deep end

    Is phosphate treatment my final answer???

    My big question: is treating my salt water pool for high phosphates the answer? Had a small algae bloom after a pool party a few weekends ago and my FC had dropped to zero. Performed a SLAM and passed all 3 SLAM requirements. I figured great! We are all set. But my salt cell just can’t seem...
