I set it up, very easy. I ran my pump and the guage on the flow meter barely got up to the 1 marking. I figuered this was ideal due to long pump run times (8hrs winter 12 hrs summer)and I am using 12.5% bleach. I am barely getting a 1ppm on CL. I am using my pump on low speed and I have 4 suction lines and 4 return lines. I use two suction lines most of the time (main drain and cleaner) and 1 return line (5 return nozzle) the other 3 return lines are for 1 5ft sheer descent and 2 lion heads and I do not use due to areation.
In order to get a higher reading on the flow meter, I have to close one of my 2 suction lines almost 3/4 closed. This setup the flow meter goes up to 4 yet not much change on CL (maybe 2 ppm) Am I straining the pump? my filter reads about 3 psi on low and 15 psi on high.
What are some of my options? I really do not want to run my pump on high.
Can I remove those check valves on the tubing?
