Maintaining Proper Chemistry

There are lots of DIY threads detailing people's installs of Stenner systems. There is a whole forum dedicated to it here, Chemical Automation and The Liquidator

Thanks. Any estimate for cost?

Better yet...what are the drawbacks from a automated liquid dosing system, aside from having to bring in liquid chlorine?

No idea on cost. Hauling chlorine and filling the tank is the only real drawback. Otherwise it is pretty much the same as SWG test FC and tweak to output as needed. A benefit is you won't get the coldwater low salt errors that SWGs have when the water is cold.

Thanks. Good to know there aren't any significant drawbacks. In a perfect setup I imagine bringing in a 5 gal drum and dosing right from there. But, I'll move this to the proper forum area.
