I just got a pentair variable speed pump installed and I have a chlorinator. Well if I decide to run the pump at 1850rpm or less he said the chlorinator is not going to work (which i was putting 3 inch chlorine tablets in).
I told him "oh thats no problem I read about how to treat my pool on trouble free pool and I will be using bleach as soon as I run out of tablets because tablets boost my CYA levels and I cant bring them down unless I do partial drains or aerate the water"
And his response was that I might not want to do that because the bleach will eat away at the plaster much faster than the chlorine tablets.
I am going to take a wild guess and say he is full of it?
Secondly, does anyone know what speed your pump needs to be running at to make a chlorinator useful?
