Just a quick update...

After I got home last night (and it was almost night...8 PM), I uncovered the pool and the water was clear but there was a very slight film of algae all over the bottom and sides. I gave it a quick but thorough vacuum & brushing and added more bleach and some Borax (pH was 7.2, but I would like it to be 7.5). When I was done the water was no longer clear...it was a very cloudy green again since I'd stirred up all the algae. .

I took the cover off today and my water was CRYSTAL CLEAR. Filter pressure was up over 30 again though, but a quick backwashing took care of that (not surprising since there was so much algae in the water last night. My water hasn't looked this good since the day we filled it! I can clearly see the "x" on the heads of the screws on my main drain (8' deep end)!

BLEACH WORKS!
