I have an Intex sand filter on my ~5000 gal above ground pool. Ever since my SWCG tripped during a power outage on a 10-day vacation, trying to get ahead of an algae problem. But when I vacuum the bottom of the pool to get the (presumably?) algae off the bottom - it shoots right back into the pool via the return.
Should I be expecting my sand filter to be filtering out algae?? I tried to attach a pic of the return plume, not sure how well it shows.
