Ok I am pretty frustrated at this point. Any ideas or help would really be appreciated at this time.
I have maintained FC 29 everyday dosing three times a day since I started on Saturday (For CYA of 50 Mustard Algae level is 29 which is what I maintained). I have never let the FC drop below 18 and most times it is 24-29. I have not passed the OCLT yet as every night I loose FC 4-7. This shocking procedure so far has significantly cleaned up the water - it is blue, sparkling and there is no sand like build up each morning (Algae?).
However, the procedure has not solved my white water mold problem.
The white water mold is not dying. Even at FC 29. I can now see it growing the bottom of the deep end of the pool - not just in the filter or plumbing or in the dark. Actually collecting and getting larger. I pulled some up in my skimmer net and it looks healthy and alive.
I have exposed the niches and brushed the pool several times.
Does anybody know what I can do?
One thought is that the pool guys replaced my pump late last season and suggested I should go from a 1.5 HP to 1 HP pump to save money on running costs. They said the 1HP would be sufficient. I am wondering if the water isn't circulating enough could this allow the mold to grow?
Is there any other method/chemical to kill this Dang mold?
Thanks in advance.
