Hi all,
New pool owner here. Finally think I've been able to master the chemistry side of things and believe all of my levels are in good shape.
All of a sudden today, we are noticing many white fibers and flakes suspended within the water of the pool (not floating on top), which we have never seen before. Picture is attached. My wife suspected that it was some sort of pollen from trees, but it doesn't add up since it's literally everywhere and pool is always covered when not in it (we have an auto cover). We had pretty heavy bathing loads last weekend for 4th of July so bumped FC up to ~10 prior using the SWG. We were also for a few days which was followed by some rainy days, so pool has not been in use or open for most of the week, which is unusual for us. Could this be some sort of white mold due to pool not receiving light in a while? I did scrub the walls and run vacuum yesterday, which I do weekly.
I'm using the TF Test Kit and have the following numbers:
FC 5.0
CC 0.0
PH 7.5
TA 70
CYA 70
CH 100
Any tips or guidance is appreciated!
