    IC20 Power Center with IC40 Salt Cell

    To keep or remove sprinkler system - pre construction

    I removed some sprinkler heads and PVC pipe. I capped off the pipes along the edge of my lot and was able to use them again after the pool was finished.

    High Salt light on the Aqua Rite system remains on

    I have had the high salt problem too. My test were saying one thing and the SWG another. I drained water three different times and finally the blinking lights went away. So, I really did have too much salt and you probably do as well. You might try shutting the system down and...

    Pool supplies on hand

    I do not use bleach and do not buy chlorine. Once your salt is at the proper level you will rarely need to add. So, keeping a bag or two on hand is very sufficient. I use about one quart of muratic acid every five days and a couple of pounds of baking soda once in a while. I also add a...
