With the Intex SWG adjusting the percentage is not an option. It is either On or OFF. I only added the 1 gallon, one time. Since then, I have not supplemented with any more.

What is the best way to look at your chemicals when testing (I use theTF-100 test kit)? Do you hold them toward the sky, put a white piece of paper behind them, look at them in the garage, outside by the pool....? The colors seem to be slightly different dependent upon what the test is being...

I just received test kit today (TF-100). This is the first year we are trying a saltwater chlorinator (because it came with our 12' x 24' x 52" deep, 8,000 gallon Intex rectangular pool). We have been running the chlorinator for about a week now for 6 hours per day--the recommended amount...
