CSI for Pebble Tech

[KevJB]

There should be no need to regularly 'clean' a SWCG with acid. Mine has been in service since March 2015. I have done the same as Mark, picked a couple pieces of scale out of it earlier this year.

Maintain your CSI between -0.6 and 0 and you will not have scale buildup in your SWCG.

-.6 CSI? PebbleTec told me that is absolutely incorrect and will void my warranty? He stated that -.3 is maximum. Why do you state -.6? I want to do what is technically correct but not void my warranty.

@mknauss, you stated that to prevent scaling on SWG cell, one should maintain a CSI of 0.6 - 0.
-.6 CSI? PebbleTec told me that is absolutely incorrect and will void my warranty? He stated that -.3 is maximum. Why do you state -.6? I want to do what is technically correct but not void my warranty.
Any help from others most welcome - thanks!

Kev,

I'll bet that Marty said anything between 0 and -.6

Thanks,

Jim R.

one should maintain a CSI of -0.6 - 0.

He stated that -.3 is maximum.

-0.3 is between -0.6 and 0.0, so just maintain -0.3 to 0.0 and you satisfy both requirements.

For short duration, the -0.6 will do no harm. Be sure you are speaking of CSI, not LSI.
