I noticed yesterday the there is a pretty healthy leak coming from the bottom of my in-line chlorinator. There is a plastic knob that seemed loose but that didn't stop the leak. Is this something that is easily replaced or should I have someone come do it?

@JamesW has covered the removal of the Chlorinator. Will damage the SWG and heater, WHEN, not if.
Hayward part number: #SPX1700FGV is the drain plug and o-ring.

The chlorinator is after the heater and right before the SWCG. I didn’t ask for it, they just put it in when they built it.
Where is that drain plug located? Is it underneath the unit? I can only see that tan knob.

That is the drain plug.
You need this, sorry, gave you 100 series plug. This is 200 series. It may be black at inyo, but it is the same thing as your tan plug.

Don't use it. Pucks are acid, when pump goes off, acid get to the heater, and when you use it acid gets to your SWG. No Bueno.
