Slightly cloudy water.

[OscarB]

Hi everyone,
My pool has been sparkling clear the whole season but every August, it gets slightly cloudy. My combined chlorine is never above a .5, honestly it is usually a zero. If the pool is slightly cloudy after a few days and running the filter longer, manually vacuuming and keeping the chemistry in check is not helping - is it time to slam?

Thank you,

Oscar, I'd bump up your FC to SLAM levels for a day and then keep it 1-2 points higher than you have been. Its August! HOT, Sunny, lots of swimmers! If that doesn't get things back to sparkle I'd run an OCLT.
Overnight Chlorine Loss Test

(Your siggy shows up fine )

Oscar - if you’re on a mobile device you can only see the signatures if u turn the device sideways
