Test results and questions

[Jeffski]

I understand what you're saying, but if I run the Aquabot for 4-6 hours for three straight days and the bottom of the pool is still covered hours later it has to be algae, right?

Anyway, yes my SWG was not getting my chlorine up over 5 so I dumped in a bunch of Clorox and now it's up to 10. Yes the chlorine is dropping overnight and I have .5 CC's which hasn't gone away (should be zero right?). So I am going to keep the SWG at 100%, run the pump 24/7, and add chlorine as needed to keep it up around 10 for several days. Is this safe to swim in?

Also, when you ask about chlorine levels dropping overnight what you're really asking is if they are dropping when the pump isn't running and the SWG is off...is that correct?

One last thing...I added about 3lbs of stabilizer because I was getting a zero reading. I think it's testing around 20 right now and I was targeting 50ish. How is having a low CYA reading, or none at all, affecting my pool right now as I battle this algae?

Thanks everyone.
