Should I SLAM?

[Jaylakay]

If you are home and your FC is falling off that fast it would be better if you can check that FC and dose back to SLAM more often, say every 2 hours?

That will help keep you in the prime algae killing zone more often which will get you to where you want to be faster.

I did this all thorough the day the last 2 days. I tested every 2 to 3 hours and kept my chlorine at SLAM level. I also cleaned my cartridge filter each night. This morning I can see the bottom! It's still cloudy but the progress is obvious! Being able to see where the pine needles are on the bottom is a huge win; I can actually see to net them out!
I'm hoping this means I only have another day of SLAM. We're all eager to swim!

Also, my SLAM level is 12 and this morning I was only down to 10.5!

You can safely swim with FC at or below SLAM Level based on your CYA. You need to also be able to see the bottom of the pool in the deep end.

Go swim! It actually helps as the water gets mixed up & filter can get stuff
