Our recently installed Intellichlor IC60 is reporting VERY LOW SALT at 2750 ppm. However, if I measure with the Taylor salt kit (K1776?), that test measures the salt at 3400 ppm. Here are the details of the water as tested today...
pH: 7.4
FC: 8.5
CC: 0.5
TA: 110
CYA: 80
CH: 480
NaCl: 2750 (IC60 reading) vs. 3400 (Taylor K1776 result)
BTW, the IC60 is running for 8hr/day at 80%. I'm seeing a small amount of yellow algae on the walls of the pool, so I'll probably throw more liquid chlorine in there. But, I'm also wondering if the IC60 might need to be cleaned and that's the reason it's suddenly reading such a low level of salt (this has changed from about 3150 to 2750 over the last few days). Perhaps such high CH means I need to clean the cell more often than if the CH level were on target?
Thanks.... Craig
