I have an intex sand SWP, which is exactly two years old. I just filled a new intex ultraframe pool (the last one fell apart). I put the requested amount of salt in it (260 lbs), and the pump has been running for 10 hours a day, for about 4 days. The other chemical levels (including cyanuric acid) are just about at optimum levels. Only problem is I have NO Chlorine, thus I'm assuming the pump must not be able to convert it properly.
In addition to the above information, I have also removed the copper electrode and the titanium electrode, and I have soaked them in white vinegar. I even scrubbed the copper electrode with steel wool and the entire electrode is back to shinny copper, (although there are built-up, rough areas that have built over the past two years, that are copper in color but rough and non-removable). I have also done a couple back washes.
Here's my main question: What element/part of the pump may be responsible for not generating chlorine? I can simply replace that part, I'm assuming?
Thank you all!
