I was getting some low CC readings, despite having spotless water. So I SLAMed it a few days ago. Had my FC in the 20-25 range, and was able to make both the CC go to 0, and my overnight use of FC to be 0.
So I let FC drop back down to the 4-8 range, where it should be for CYA of 50. But last night, the pool consumed almost an entire gallon of liquid chlorine. And CCs are now around 3-4.
The ONLY thing that could have changed is all the tree pollen / droppings from all the spring trees around the yard.
Q: Assuming the trees will soon stop dropping their stuff, will the CCs eventually go away with "normal" FC? Or will I need to periodically SLAM to get them to go away? Adding 2 gallons of chlorine per day does not thrill me for an entire season, but hoping that'll slow down.
Q2: Am I over-stressing the indication of CCs, given the water is spotless, and I am out skimming every 2 hours to pick up all the little pieces?
