    Pentair intellichlor model ic40 just replaced but it isn't generating chlorine?

    Hi all, Thank you for the help - my SLAM process cleaned up the water well. No more chlorine drop overnight. My question is this: how low must the chlorine go before resuming the tests for the other levels? TIA

    Hi All, Thank you for the support! It did the overnight test for chlorine and it dropped from 3.5 to 1.5. I am using the TF100 Salt tester, by the way. I did the test as recommended. Turned the salt cell to zero. Added around a gallon of chlorine last night, ran the pump and cleaner for 45...

    I have an electronic tester - it measures salt and PH - I checked the accuracy by comparing it to the Leslies result - and it was good. Here's the model and info from the receipt: Pool Salt Tester & PH Meter, Hofun Digital Salinity Meter and PH Tester for Aquarium and Pool Saltwater Water, 5 in...

    I do have the recommended kit - T100 I believe, with the spinner/stirrer. Signature on the way.

    No OCLY - will do that tonight. Other than that, no major adjustments - it has been cruising along well - just low on chlorine. Water looks mostly clear - a little sediment. Like dusty (I live in TX) TIA!

    Pentair intellichlor model ic40 just replaced but it isn't generating chlorine?

    Hi All, I had a 10 year old salt cell that want kaput... So I bought a new one - and it isn't generating much chlorine. All lights are working properly, it is set at 100 percent, salt measures 3400. CYA is at 70 or 80, PH at 70, - and I suspect a bad salt cell. Is there anything else it could...

    Pentair Intellichlor Model IC40 Not generating Chlorine

    Hello all, Thank you in advance for your help. You have bailed me out a few times now! My chlorinator isn't making chlorine. The salt level lights are blinking red/green repeatedly. Probably a half second each. Salt is good - 3400. I checked for build up inside and it is clean... Do I need a...
