Hi all,
New to pool ownership...a
about a year and a half....1st year or so, no issues. My wife has the water tested every 2-3 week and we have had no problems at all till a couple of months ago.
At test 3 weeks ago, the pool place told us that the SWG was not producing and the cell needed to be inspected and cleaned. I removed the cell, took it in and had them check it and clean...no issues found. Added salt and shocked the pool...readings at 3200.
At test last week, we were told that it was still not producing, needed to be shocked and needed acid.
Readings:
Total Chlorine 1.0
Free chlorine 1.0
Salt 3900...even though the system shows 3200
The SWG lights read:
Power>>>ON
Generating sanitizer>>>OFF
Sanitizer boost>>>OFF (I have it on auto at 90%)
No flow>>>OFF
Check minerals>>>OFF
High minerals>>>OFF
Inspect cell>>>OFF
The system is set to run for 6 hours on the timer. Question about that, should it be running at the same time as the pool pump?
Your help will be greatly appreciated,
Pete
