Hi all, new pool owner and new to forums.
So I have a 15x48 intex metal frame pool and I purchased a 1600gph sand filter and swg intex combo unit. I've read through the manual 5 times and can not find the information I need.
Im unsure of what to do to operate this the right way. I see that I should be operating sand filter about 3 hours per day but how long should i be running the swg? If I set the swg to run for 3 hours every night will that also turn on the filter pump? Can I just set the 6 way valve to filter and leave it like that even when it's not on so it can kick on when the swg starts?
I'm also reading about some kind of acid chemical I need with salt water pool but I'm not sure if I'm understanding right. Is this an additive I need to purchase or does the chloranator produce this?
Sorry for all the questions but I want to make sure I'm running this right. Thanks in advance.
