This is my first year using the TFP method. I replaced my liner and water in May, and I have, and I have been very meticulous about testing and maintaining balance and chlorine levels. The lowest my chlorine level has been is 1 ppm above minimum for my CYA level. Yesterday @ 10:00 my FC was 8.5, so I did not add any bleach, and today at 10:00 here are my numbers
FC 7.5
CC 0
PH 7.4
TA 70
CH 280
CYA 40
Temp 74
My water is clear and about a week ago I performed an overnight chlorine loss test,,,,, just for piece of mind, which it passed with less than 1 ppm loss. From what I can see, I don't see a need to do a SLAM.
In my previous pool maintenance regiment, I performed a weekly shock, and with the TFP method, I have not performed any type of shock or SLAM this year.
My question is: If my water is kept balanced, and my chlorine level is kept up, I can pass an overnight chlorine loss test and the water is clear, do I even need to perform a SLAM?
