    RJ-60 installed, chlorine lower than expected.

    Ive seen a couple of these threads, but I'm running my unit at 100% six hours a day, and it should, by my calculations, give me 1ppm per hour ran. 3.1lbs of chlorine produces per 24hrs , is this maybe in super chlorinate mode? I'm am going to do and OCLT tonight to rule that out.

Replacing the fiber strands would be expensive and still not give great light i hear. Im building a...

    Stenner install, housing?

    Hey guys, getting all my pieces for stenner install, and looking at it, seems to me that it should be installed inside of some sort of housing, as this will be outside. I did not get the rain roof or cover. Should this be installed into a large electrical j box, or just with the rain roof?
