My SWG won't turn of due to a low salt warning it's throwing me. The equipment is reading 2200 ppm but my testing is consistently saying 3400 ppm. Obviously, the water is where it's suppose to be, salt-wise. I clean the cell at regular intervals. When this has happened in the past, I'll do an additional cleaning and it will usually bring the equipment reading within 200-300 ppm of the actual testing. That isn't happening this time around and is remaining at the 1200 ppm difference.
The cell (and all other equipment) was installed September 2016, so we're coming up on four years old. Is it time to replace the cell entirely? Should I try something else?
