I'm putting in a small outdoor swim spa and I'm looking for some advice to the configuration before it gets installed.
The system will be outdoors in Oregon. The pool will be a fiberglass Swimspa style around 4000 gallons, (8.5 feet x 18 feet x 5.6 feet deep) and there will be an inground hot tub as well (Viking Regal model.. guessing around 800-1100 gallons) Small water sheer feature. and Endless pool fastlane swim current generator. Pool will be used year round.
My pool installer wants to use the following equipment:
Pentair Easy Touch (Dual system)
Pentair Intellclor SWG
Gas heater
What I'm wondering about is if this system will generate too much chlorine for such a small pool. The pool installer originally wanted to use a copper ion disinfection unit for quite a bit more.
I'm also debating putting in solar for some additional (cheaper) heating for the pool.
The pool hasn't been installed yet, so I can still change things around if needed. Hoping to get advice on any and all aspects that may effect this installation.
Thank you in advance!
