@mknauss Okay, sounds good. I've turned it off.
Since I got it off, I pulled it and it definitely needs to be cleaned. Huge build up (pics attached). I tried to hose it off but that's not working, so I put it in a muriatic acid bath of 14% acid to water (all the acid I had left).
I also went ahead and cleaned out the cartridge filter, which was super dirty.
Is it okay to use the acid from cleaning the SWG to balance my pH afterwards? Or no because the build up would be bad to introduce into the pool? What is the build up? Calcium?
