Yikes...I see that now...somehow I got 10 in my mind. The filter is a Hayward S-200? Everything over there was installed in 2004 with the pool. We changed the sand mid-last-season.
There's no one around the house most of the day, so adding chemicals may be a mostly before work/after work option. I could check it at 6 or so when I get home and again at 10 or so before I retire for the day, if that additional 4 hour check in would make a difference? Otherwise it's likely a 7am and 7pm until the weekend.
Dumb question for some reason I'm sure, but my water utility charges $6 per thousand plus a few pennies in tax per thousand gallons. Would replacing some mass amount of the water expedite this process? Seems like $60 (plus $5 or so in taxes & fees) to replace 10k gallons of the 'troubled waters' would make a difference, with some financial payback in fewer gallons of precious chlorine and a huge payoff in stress relief. That may be a really bad idea...just asking.
I suspect that staring the SLAM also makes this not a good time to do that also even if there were some value to doing it.
Just seeking to understand better...
Thank you.
