New issue this year. Opened the pool to a green swamp as usual (stupid mesh safety cover) and started the SLAM. Pool went to a cloudy blue in two days and has stayed there. The algae just won't get filtered out. Its going on 3 weeks now with no change. Cannot see the bottom in the shallow end. I am approaching 60 jugs of 10% already and I am tired of it. Last few years this issue did not persist, I was able to clear things up within a week.
Things I have done/am doing:
Brushed twice daily
kept chlorine at 16 ppm
checked the sand, its in good shape. Added a bag to bring the level up after a week
Opened the multiport valve, no cracks and spider gasket is in like new shape
s200 robot running continuously
DE additions through the skimmer, they will bring the PSI up after about 12-16 hours each time to where it needs backwashed
The water is not getting any clearer. I have the robot but no vacuum. What should I do besides close the pool? I can post a picture tonight
