New Hayward DE Not Filtering to Satisfaction.

Are those results from a test strip?

Regardless, no FC causes all sorts of water clarity issues. No CYA may be one reason why you have no FC.

Somewhat off your original subject, but it sounds as if you have a significant water leak as well.

You need to get the leak stopped, then you need to balance your water. Pool School has tons of good reading on water balance (ABC's of pool water chemistry) while you're working on the leak.
