Hello,
First time posting, just joined. I have a 16x30 liner pool 6' deep end 14,400 gallons. pool and system is new only open 1 1/2 months last summer before it was closed for the winter. i live in Georgia. i've been having issues keeping the chlorine levels up. i have an Aquacal Autopilot nano+ generator. Hayward 3030 cartridge filter with a super pump. i've had the water tested at least 4 times since it's been open (1 month). initial opening and test just had to add 3 bags salt. a week later i noticed very minor algae growth, chlorine was low. water test showed i needed stabilizer and calcium. a week later chlorine is again low. within the first 2-3 weeks i've boosted the system 3 times. 2 days ago i had water tested again and everything was perfect, but chlorine which was almost 0. again boosted and added 2lb shock. now, 2 days later chlorine is again near zero. autopilot says it's running at 60%, there is no algae at all. had water tested again today. i'm going to post the results and the setup from the autopilot. today i added 1lb shock and again put on boost.
why do i keep bottoming out and how do i know if the generator is actually working.
