Keep at it! Do your best to get in 3 doses a day. Example : Before work, right after, & right before bed if you can. Hit it hard (every couple hours) on the weekends (or whenever you’re off work)
The more often you are at slam level the faster it will go.
Are you absolutely certain of your cya level? Remember there’s no inbetweens & you always round up to be sure you’re covered. Anything reading between 60 & 70 = 70.
For a successful SLAM Process
you need to continue to MAINTAIN Slam level fc for your cya as often as possible (multiple times per day) until you meet ALL 3 end of slam criteria-
You are done when:
CC is 0.5 or lower;
You pass an Overnight Chlorine Loss Test
AND
the water is clear.
(Crystal Clear w/no algae dead or alive)
*Check & scrub every nook & cranny where algae may hide (light niches, steps, drain covers, ladder handrails, skimmer throats/weirs, etc.)
*Run slam level water through all water features & lines for at least a couple hours a day during the
SLAM Process.
*Brush & or vac daily (this breaks up biofilms that algae uses to protect itself from chlorine)
*Backwash/clean filter when pressure rises 25%over clean pressure.
