Cold climates and SWG?

[EmilyOTR]

Someone told me that SWG don't work well in cold climates (we are in Michigan). I haven't seen anything like that. Are there any issues?

Sorry for the lack of signature, I don't know a lot yet. it's in ground. lol

Emily,

Most SWCG's will automatically shut off if the water temperature is below 50 degrees or so. I would assume your pool will most likely be closed in the winter anyway.

I don't close my pool. Once the water gets into the 60s I turn off my SWG and switch to bleach for the winter. Chlorine consumption drops significantly in colder water. As Jim says your pool will be closed for most or all of that time anyway.

Yes it will be closed for the winter.
