    SWG Downgrade

    Just following up here. Very excited to say I got my old system working! :D It has been producing solidly for about 3 weeks now. It was so much easier than I had expected. The story goes like this: I received a replacement SJ-20 cell. I installed it and turned it on. It didn't...

    Thanks for the reply. I added more info about my pool to the signature, and hopefully can post more photos at some point, but I already have a good idea where I need to move the inline unit if I end up keeping it. I do have to put the inline before the caretaker as it would be impossible not...

    SWG Downgrade

    Appreciate your suggestion...I would think that too, however, I'm sure it goes off with the pump (lights go out and everything--total power down of box). After the system was installed a few months ago, it was NOT setup that way and I had to change it. Also, now realizing the "professional"...

    I agree, back-flow doesn't make sense when system is off.

    Ugh, did some more research on this and found that the reason to put after heater is so you don't destroy your heater with Chlorine. I guess the guy that installed my unit didn't know about this. And some are saying to put a check-valve to protect the heater from the chlorinator. This is...

    It is installed after the filter, mostly like shown here except it is before the heater bypass. I don't have an ozone generator. Could putting it before the heater cause a problem? The tech I talked to suggested it would be impossible for water pressure alone to bust the lid and it was gas...

    Yes, SWG powers off with pump. Still not sure why it exploded. Worried it will happen again. Hrm, it is for me. My cell is after the pump and before going into the heater and/or into other things that could give back pressure like a caretaker or spa jet. Maybe this is the problem?

    I posted this a while back. residential in-deck pool SWG--do they exist anymore? To followup, I just ended up caving in and buying a CircuPool inline cell. It was a downgrade--requires more salt and more energy to make it work. Also, a few months later, I find my pool mostly drained and the...

    residential in-deck pool SWG--do they exist anymore?

    Helo SWG Wizards. I inherited my pool 3 years ago. I was surprised that the ancient AutoPilot Cubby system with the In-Deck cell installation worked very well after I cleaned up the cell. For 2 years I didn't worry at all about chlorine levels--it just worked perfectly. 1 year ago, the cell...
