I did a complete test on my pool yesterday so today Using the K-1000 test kit CL 0.5, yesterday (adding a bag of Cal-Hypo 12 hours before test) CL 5.0. So I had this same problem last year and this year is about the same. What I’ve done under the guidance of pool store, shock the pool lost count of how many times, Couple of Algaecide treatments, I did have allege, started a weekly treatment Phos-Free (snake oil) After the algaecide treatments I did clean the filters. The pool looks really clean but when I sweep it dose get a slight look of dust sometimes I do have a lot of tall trees around the yard after a windy day pool dose its job of stopping flying debris. So could be debris or maybe mustard algae. So what should my next step be? I’ll post the test from yesterday and today Did not retest CYA (50) or CH.(225) I did add acid to lower PH
