Hi all,
I am sure you have seen in the news that we are getting some rain in Texas. Tonight in San Antonio, I got slammed. Up until now, it has filled the pool up some, and I had to do some draining. Well tonight, it filled to the top, and also had run in from the yard, including dirt and such. Not too many leaves because I had my leaf cover on.
My numbers on Monday were good, maintaining FC around 8-9 (CYA around 60-70), pH 7.5, and other numbers within range. So now the water is brownish from the run in. A quick FC test shows chlorine around 3-4. So I added enough Chlorine to get it up to 10. Also set filter to run all night, and turned on Polaris to clean up some dirt.
Question is do I need to SLAM? It is not algae, it is dirt. I was going to take off leaf cover and vacuum tomorrow, and make sure FC is not dropping fast.
thanks in advance!
