I dont think slamming is helping,I have 0 loss at night for 6 days.
I found post about deep cleaning filter which I did last night.
Today the pool is clear all the way to the drain!
It looks like I had a filtration problem not a algee problem :p
I have been filtering from the main drain for a month 8' pool,
So you think I have something growing during the day that the chlorine is attacking, but then it quits attacking it at night?
I slammed again after a month because pool school told me I needed to. the pool has never been all the way...
I slammed the pool a month ago it was green.
back washed when needed
I passed the overnight test, pool was clear except last 4 feet down to the drain.

Im in my 2nd day of slam, the filter needs backwashing, PSI is 10 pounds above avarage, filter housing at pump can only fill halfway with water.
Do I leave it because a dirty filter cleans better or backwash to get more water flow?
