Getting a lot of algae blooms on my weekly stops lately. Anyone dealing with this in high-heat months? My chlorine is disappearing overnight.

Check your cyanuric acid levels first — if it's above 90 ppm your chlorine effectiveness tanks in heat. Classic this time of year.

Also add phosphate remover to high-risk pools proactively — organic load from tree cover spikes in summer and feeds algae hard.
