Everything has been fine until yesterday. I took the solar cover off since it had been on the last few days and put my robot in to clean up the pool. I usually robot clean it once a week. I didn't even pay any attention to the water clarity. We came home yesterday afternoon to a clean pool but I noticed right away the water was cloudy. I thought it was prob from the cleaner kicking up the pollen and stuff that had settled on the bottom. I bw the filter because every time I use the robot it raises my psi 2-4 from kicking stuff up with the pump running. We swam last night and that's when I noticed I couldn't see the other side of the 43 ft pool underwater with googles on which I normally can.
That got me thinking so after we swam I raised the FC from 4.5-6.0 like we normally do every night. Then I did a full test and put the cover back on. Results were:
FC 6
Cc 0
Ta 90
Ch 20
Cya 45
Ph 7.2
I just checked the FC this am as soon as I got up and removed the solar cover and it was 5.5.
So should I slam it and run my pump a little more the next few days? With the solar cover and solar heater we are now at and holding 80 degree water temp just this week. Not sure if that has anything to do with it.
I think I'm going to raise the ph to 7.5 as well. It's been at 7.2 since we opened it this year. Last year it was 7.5 and we never had to touch it.
Any thoughts on all this?
