Before I start, I was unable to properly winterize our pool last year. A mistake I will not be making again! I'm worried about possible damage to the filter, o ring or lateral. Anyway what is happening is we are vacuuming the pool every 3-4 days. Every time, we get the pool floor spotless, and then gradually greenish dirt settles on the bottom. I'm assuming either we have an algae problem or our filter is damaged. Our water tested fine when I tested it earlier.
I'm using the pool kit purchased from this site. The one that includes the plastic carrying case. Our CYA tested to be 30-40. Our chlorine was getting low, plan to add bleach as soon as possible. Our PH was around the ideal range of 7.2 to 7.6. Finally our alkalinity was optimal compared to the pool school stats. This can't be normal to have to vacuum practically every 2 days to clean up this dirt. Any help would be appreciated!
Here is a picture of the problem.
