Thanks for the feedback, Dave. I just finished pulling maintenance on the pool. Scrubbed down the sides, cleaned the filter, tested the water, and added chems. Interesting thing, when I cleaned the filter, unlike when I cleaned it a week ago, where the dirt coming out of it was green colored, this time it was just dirt colored. No green at all. Odd, considering.
I did as you and Casey have suggested. I'm using 10 ppm as a target since yesterday. FCs were 7.5 ppm and CCs still at 1.0 ppm, pH at 7.5. So I added 10% bleach and 31.45% muriatic acid as per the PoolMath app.
Today I noticed when I was scrubbing the sides that the pool color has changed slightly. It has taken on a slight aqua tinge. If that doesn't go away from the heightened FC level by, say, tomorrow, I'm gonna go ahead and start SLAMming again, even though the water quality is still good. Especially since, if I can assume that I added the correct amount yesterday to raise the target level to 10 ppm, in a single day the FCs dropped by 2.5 ppm. And it's still mostly overcast here. Partly sunny, so I don't think the sun is burning off much of the chlorine.
