Does this look like normal fading? Pools gets sun literally all day long. I am pretty strict on keeping ph within range, 7.2 to 7.6 about. I add muriatic acid regularly to keep ph down since it is a salt water pool. I keep the chlorine a little on the high side. Maybe getting into 5.0 ppm sometimes.

Pool is in NJ so over the winter the water is not maintained. When they opened the pool this year they mentioned ph was very low, I don't get a chance to check the level before they added baking soda.
