Question for the experts.

I am 5 days into a SLAM process. Pump running 24/7. My FC needs to be at 20 ppm and the water is starting to clear up nicely.

However, tomorrow the temps are supposed to drop into the 30s. Should I continue with the SLAM with the pump on or turn off my pump? I don't know if the cold will have an effect on it. The pump is a Hayward single speed 1 /1/2 horsepower. My pool is 33k gallons and is an in-ground vinyl liner. I am in VA and the cold is only supposed to last a day.

TIA
 
You can continue the SLAM with the pump running.

Crazy weather we’re having here in VA. Frost in May.....ugh! We’re suppose to be swimming in May, not freezing!

We’re in Tidewater. Usually by now the water temp is in the 70’s. Right now it’s struggling to reach the mid 60’s. ☹️
