Hello Folks! Need some support and verification here... We have arrived at our 30 day mark since our pool was finished and pumps were started. Today I had my Pool Builder come place the IntelliChlor Cell after the filter and tomorrow the electrician will come to wire up the Power Center and tie the system in.
I want to ensure I am asking him to do this the right way since I do not have Automation. Currently my Intelliflo VSF is wired directly to Breaker Panel and there is no timer in between.
Install Plan:
- Install Intermatic T101R Mechanical Time Switch and wire into Service Panel using 20A Breaker
- Wire IntelliChlor Power Center to Intermatic T101R
- Program SWG to run inside of the run time in my IntelliFlo schedule
Questions:
- Is there not a way to wire the IntelliChlor direct and put communication cable between IntelliFlo and IntelliChlor?
- How do I know how much salt is needed for my pool?
- Is the Clorox Pool Salt from Sam's a good choice?
- Do I just empty the bags into the pool? Does the salt damage the finish if it sits at the the bottom?
