Ok gonna start vacuuming now, 24 hours after floc and pump off… is this just so fine the filter is missing it, or a filtration issue? Pool is perfectly clear now just dust/dirt all over the bottom

Continuing to slam, added the floculant and shut pump off last night. Pool is still cloudy but better, very very fine layer of dust on the bottom

I’ve tested for ammonia with pet store tests and used my automated testing unit for my reef tank. Both show none, plus I’m not losing CYA or FC very fast. Still at 20 ppm FC now

Update FC 22 ppm CC 0 ppm CYA 30ppm Cal 350+ TA 110-120ish pH 8+ but I’ve been slamming Still green, still dusty along the bottom all over, been slamming for 15 days now, and I’ve gone through 56 gallons of 11% chlorine

CYA is up to 30 ppm now, I took the multi port off the filter again. Sand level looks good, and as tight of a fit as im getting on the standpipe it’s just not feasible to be leaking back that way during normal filtration. Im thinking either the sand is just not filtering properly or what I’ve...

I’ve been slamming for 2 weeks, I have had no CC for about a week now, FC is 35ppm

Here is a picture from the stairs… as you can see it’s a fine layer of “dust” now we have had some horrible dust storms here over the last 3 weeks which I’m partly blaming

Stairs are getting a yellowish tint, when I get home I’ll get you a picture. You can see the liner. And yes I did mean in-line, pump is same size. When I initially changed the sand I replaced the radials too, not sure if needed to put some sand in the bottom but the stand pipe wouldn’t come all...

I added some CYA stabilizer this morning, 7.5lbs in a few socks actually

We live in a river valley with high water table and farm ground. Our water is high in nitrate and ammonia. But like I said it’s always been hard and less than ideal water and I’ve never had an issue to this degree. I did change the sand out toward the end of last year, I’m hoping I didn’t Jack...

FC 33ppm CC 0 CYA 15 ppm TA 110 Calcium 350ppm pH 8.9 If leave the pump off I will get fine dust/dirt settling on the bottom of the pool.

Hi, haven’t been on for quite some time but I haven’t had issues for quite some time. Opened my pool about 2 days ago and it was a mess from som e dust storms we had. I immediately began slamming and hand vacuuming. It started to turn blue and clear up but now it has just stalled for the last 7...

Bump... anyone ever had this issue?

Update, any ideas/input would be appreciated...: tonight I reset breakers, started jets on low, set temp to 102, power light stayed on and heater appeared to be working until I turned the jets off, (about 7-8 min run time) after jets were down there was a ticking/bubbling noise near the filter...

It’s got an IQ2020 controller

I have a tiger river spa, bengal model, not sure on the year, believe it’s an 07, the tubs jets will run for 5-10 minutes and heater will get hot, then everything powers down and power light starts blinking, I had this happen last winter and it froze up, we had a power outage and it froze up...

Yes, I have a dolphin quantum, going to hand vac today after work, those are just the spots it didn’t get cleaned up

No I haven’t used copper algicides, the metals product I’ve used in the past was bioguard pool magnet plus - - - Updated - - - If it means anything, I live in a small town surrounded by corn fields, they fog every Tuesday for mosquitos and farmers are spraying periodically, two neighbors have...

No heater, and I have used a liquid magnet product before for metals but it was usually more of a dingy brown and very teal looking water, this is just strange because I can see my liner easily up to 6 feet like it’s clear water just dyed green - - - Updated - - - Is there anything that can...

Yes metals are common from this well, I haven’t stopped the SLAM, 2 days in now at 18ppm, I stopped the first round of it 5 days ago to drain and refill worrying high CYA could be the culprit and a SLAM would only be a short term fix. After refilling (Sunday morning) I started a SLAM from 3 FC...

My pool is emerald green and has been for over a week, near the start of it I had posted about my excessively high pH/TA and have since remedied that issue, my FC had fallen to around a 3-5 for a few days and my CYA was between 40-50, I started a SLAM and held 18ppm with no change, thinking...
