    Running Pool 24 hours prevents algae

    We just finished the SLAM process and as soon as we stopped running the pool 24 hours it started back turning green. Hayward sand filter. Sand is barely 1 year old. Why is the water only staying clear when we run the pump 24 hours? First time pool owners and need help.
