Good afternoon everyone.

I have just moved in to a house here in the south of France, and it is using a SWG system.

I have been through all of the pool school ressources and have also been looking at the manual for the SWG they have installed.

I have concerns, starting with the gr/h of generation, as well as the "low" marker on the screen, which according to the manual means either the salt is low, the cell needs cleaning, or the cell is bad and needs replacing.
According to the previous owner, the pool guy they use just "took it out of wintering".
I see in the settings of the computer it says the electrolosis should be 10 gr/h, which matches with what i calculated for the pool.

I do not have a T100 kit, afaik these arent available in France, and right now being super accurate isnt my main concern, its getting everyhting running correctly. If anybody can reccomend test strips or something like that I can get in France I would be grateful.

There is also a giant jug of PH- connected up to the pool computer, and it seems to be drinking it incredibly fast (maybe 1/5th or 6th of the giant 20L jug in the last 4-5 days.

Please see all the pictures attached, and please give me a hand in getting this thing going!
