Hey all,
Ok I got one for you.... My pool guy is stumped, his Pentair reps are stumped, lets see if any of you have come across this. My Pentair IC40 generator has had the low salt light on all season since opening up. So initially I thought, ok and added a bag of salt which took salt too high I later discovered (around (4300-4500). Last weekend my pool guy came by and we put a new cell on.... same thing. We then put both old cell and new cell in a bucket up water while leaving them hooked up to the control panel and on. He held the flow sensor down while in the bucket and lights went all green and started foaming producing chlorine, everything worked exactly as it was supposed to on both cells. Put it back on my system.... Low salt light is still red. Flow light is green. It has everyone stumped. Behaves the same on my old cell and with the brand new cell. So it currently is not producing any chlorine which is getting very old. He had me try changing out some old water with some fresh water to bring salt down (was at 4300) and just to try it.... did not help. Any thoughts?
I have used methods here for years and have very little trouble with my water, but here are specs
Salt 3500
FC 5
PH 7.4
TA 120
CH 250
CYA 65
Borate 10
Temp 87
Thanks all, I appreciate the help.
