    Thanks @JJ_Tex! I figured out how to disable the SPA blower freeze protect. Definitely much quieter now in the house and the neighborhood :D

    All, New question: Based on reading here, I understand that most recommend leaving the pump on 24/7 at the lowest setting that will "trigger" a flow indication from the flow switch and then only adjust the % output of the chlorine generator as needed to maintain adequate chlorine levels. In...
