    I am about 90 minutes north of you in Wichita Falls. What CYA level do you shoot for. You seem to be a salt expert. No use of reinventing the wheel if you have knowledge

    Yes I use tap water. I don’t know the level of the fill water but am assuming it’s low due to the fact it’s at 200 after replacing 80 percent of my water

    I have had a pool for 10 years and have been on an off the site. I never had good luck with my SWG because I was too cheap to run my pump the time it needed. So I switched to chlorine pucks and of course my CYA skyrocketed. Approx 1 week ago I drained 80% and refilled and did a slam to clear up...

    Aqualink RS Lock Out

    It is in auto mode. I have never seen lockout before and the panel buttons don’t work either. Update I was able to get the buttons to work randomly last night. It would turn on for 30 seconds then shut off. Gonna wait till the rain passes then troubleshoot some more.

    SWG Bypass

    It’s a 3 port. Seems like I was replacing them about every 3 years and was still having to supplement chlorine. For me it’s cheaper to just add chlorine
