Look into peristaltic pumps like the Stenner pump. There are several members on here who have discussed and installed them. Use the search function and see if you can find some threads on them.

I personally think the Stenner I installed is the SECOND best thing I have done for my pool. The FIRST was finding this site!

Search in the box up in the blue bar for Stenner or Liquidator

Any reason you don't want to just go with a saltwater chlorine generator?

Are these inline systems or do they deposit directly into the pool?

They all go in the plumbing so it mixes with the return flow.

Sounds like something to investigate to replace my chlorine tablet chem feeder!

I used a Stenner pump with model #45MPHP10. It works great and is controlled with a simple timer. I calculated how much chlorine it added per minute and adjusted the run time for how much FC I wanted to add.
It is fairly simple to add into the plumbing. You also need a container to hold the liquid chlorine. I used a 15 gallon, food grade blue jug.

Check out the Liquidator. It's dirt simple and reliable. No electric or electronic hookup. It holds up to 7 gallons of liquid chlorine, so not much risk of running out.

I use a HeatSavr pump (pretty sure it is a Stenner with an interface). I can set it for multiple times and amounts per day so I can dose the pool more evenly. Pretty easy to set up. Been using for 5 years now and I would go with it again.
