This may have been addressed before, but I could not find an answer when I searched around. I know not to add acid and chlorine together, but what about with a SWG. Is it OK to add acid in front of the return when the SWG is producing chlorine? I never really though about it before and nothing has happened to me yet, but just wondering if I should turn the SWG off when I add acid. Thanks!
 
No problem. The chlorine concentration coming out of your returns with the SWCG on is just very slightly above the chlorine level in your pool.
 
I thought it might be diluted enough at that point, but just wanted to ask. My mind started to wonder as I was staring at my clear water. Thanks again!
