Ive read through the Slamming Process multiple times. and am currently in the midst of slamming my pool because I started to see blotches of green on the walls of my pool. (Pool is clear as can be though).
My question is before I started slamming my pool I would have a FC loss of approx 2-3 ppm durring the day. Now that I started slamming, the first day I had a 6 ppm loss during the day. Is this normal to have a higher ppm loss because chlorine levels are higher?
Prior to slamming my levels were
FC: 6ppm
CC: 0.2 pmm (maybe 0.1 ppm)
PH: 7.4
TA: 90
CH: 80
CYA: 45
First night of slamming I brought levels up to 20.5 ppm in the morning FC was 18 ppm. Went home at about 3 pm and my FC was already at 12.5 ppm. (is this normal). I will get chlorine back up to 20 ppm. But was just curious on everyones thoughts.
When I get home from work tonight I will brush pool and vaccuum then backwash filter and then add some more DE.
Will algae eventually turn white? Beacuse it is still a light yellowinsh color as of this morning.
