Ok, here is my problem. I have only recently started using bleach and so far it has been a sporadic nightmare of adding bleach. Half a jug here, half a jug there, and then OMG I need to two jugs. I have not found a rhythm to titrating the bleach. Just a frustrating up and down.
That was my thought on automation, especially if I go as far as an ORP and pH controller.
I run my pumps currently 16-18 hours a day. My water temps stay fairly close to 90. My pump room air temps are between 65-70. The bather load is also somewhat variable. 2-5 people weekdays and 10-15 on weekends. As my child grows (he is 4 months), I'm sure those numbers will change dramatically especially on weekends.
Until recently, I had been using the "evil" pucks. Is there a way to quantify the differences with bleach. I guess I used 12-15 pucks every one and half to two weeks (a 50# pail in about 4 months).
Where can you get bleach by the barrel? Would that be a good idea for my volume usage?
Thanks jeff
