I have visited this site for several weeks and have been learning a little each week. I have tried to follow the pool school advice and have had some success but I can't get rid of the cloudiness. As a side note, I have used a swg the last 2 seasons but it has completey eaten my 25 year deck screws so this is why I'm looking for another method. Below I will post my equipment and stats.

13500 gal above ground pool
Hard piped with two inlets
Hayward 200lb sand filter
Taylor (FAS-DPD) k-2006

Products used.
6%Sodium hypochlorite bleach
Individual shock packs from pool store
Muriatic acid
Borax
Baking soda
Cyanuric acid
Chlorinating tablets in skimmer

5-14
FC. 8.4; CC 2ppm
PH 7.5
TA 170ppm
CYA 40 ppm

5-16
FC 4.4; CC 1.2
PH 7.5
TA 150ppm

5-19
FC 1.0; CC 0.6
PH 7.5
TA 130 ppm
CH 70 ppm

I'm pretty sure my CYA level is holding good. I have run out of R-0013 reagent so I'm not positive but I did check it for several days and it held at 40ppm. Please help with this thanks.

Have you been cleaning up algae?

What pump do you have?

Have you check the sand level in your filter recently?
