Hello,
First time pool owner here - haven't closed on this house yet but I'm concerned the chlorine cell may be dying. I can't get into the house until 3/14 but I'm concerned.
On 2/15 the Hayward SWG reported 2000 ppm salt. I saw it yesterday and it shows 1900. We haven't gotten much rain in the last two weeks (maybe an inch, tops).
I don't know what kind of pool maintenance is going on. I do know they have the pump set to run 9 hours per day but it's a variable speed pump and I don't know at what speed its running.
I know this is premature but should I be worried about the cell dying? Not sure what else would cause such a drop in salt levels. Not to mention that 2000 as a starting point was already low.
Thoughts?
Thanks everyone!
