Over the last 5 days, I have noticed algae spots on the sun ledge and in the corner of my swim lane. My water is crystal clear ad no other algae is visible in the pool. I was starting to think that circulation in the area was causing the problem due to no bubblers on the ledge. Today, I started messing with the two returns in that area and it hit me. I was getting good flow out of the returns but it wasn't great. Bingo! I cleaned the filter and the flow is great again! The pressure was high but not 10% above starting. I don't love cleaning the filter but I am going to start doing it once/week no matter what to ensure it's really able to do its job.
