Thanks for the info. Decided to go with the Edge 25.

Correct. The power unit and cell. I was looking at the Edge and it looks and installs almost exactly like my simple blue system I currently have. It would be the easiest change over IMO. I'm looking through some posts about circupool now. Are you a somehow involved with circupool? The link...

I'm not sure I follow. My current system has a power supply and a cell. You can adjust the amount of chlorine by a series of led lights. Does the IC20 not work the same way?

My pool came with a simple blue SWG. It worked pretty well for the first year, ever since then, the cell and flow sensor have been replaced. Fast forward three years later and now the system has stopped producing chlorine. I am looking at replacing with a pentair IC20. The pool is an...

yes, I typically dump it in front of the jet. then whatever settles at the bottom, i brush around the main drains to distribute out. But no way should I be losing 200ppm every time I add 40 lb salt.

That's the confirmation I was hoping to hear. Thanks.

Stabilizer

I opened the pool this past weekend. Tested the water and it read I had 2800 ppm salt by my K1766 test kit. I dump 40lbs in. I test the next day, I get 2600 ppm. Confused, I dump another 40lbs. I test today I get 2400ppm????? I now have a new test kit on order as this one is 3 years old...

OCLT tonight.

It was the end of the bottle, not sure if that had anything to do with it.

Ok, received the CYA reagent in the mail and retested everything. I have been trying to keep FC levels up in meantime so I have added about a gallon of bleach every other day, totaling 3 times. FC-5.5 CC-.5 CYA-60 TA-80 PH-7.8 Do you think I need a SLAM?

Gotcha

Yeah, I was concerned it would make kids eyes burn.

Weekly run my robot to clean the bottom. Check complete numbers every two weeks, was at 3.0 FC three weeks ago, boosted the swg to Max and added the bleach per the calculator. Never have slammed or shocked pool, never use tabs. I was under the impression the swg handles the FC as long as you...

I recently had two huge parties and figure that added to my issue. I've been lax in checking the pool since I've never had an issue. Pool is crystal clear, but looks like I should buy some stock in Clorox.
