You can let it drift down.

Does high level of chlorine cause pool to be cloudy or is it dead algae and the filter will clear it up?.

It is dead algae. Run your pump 24/7 and it will filter out. Watch your pressure and backwash if it increases by 8-10 psi over your clean filter pressure.
Hope this helps!
