How long to run IC40

Moved from here.
I have to run IC40 9hrs/day at 100% output to replenish 2ppm/day of FC loss

I have to run IC40 9hrs/day at 100% output to replenish 2ppm/day of FC loss,

I’m trying to figure this out. I’m in AZ so hot here as well. I want to know how long I need to run at 60% (thinking that would be less harsh on the system therefore give me longer lifespan?) to replace 2-3ppm/day? Also trying to figure out the speed but based on what im reading above seems like as long as no low flow error, I’m good? I was told I had to run it at a certain speed to be able to generate salt otherwise it just circulated water…

What volume is your pool?
You have to run the pump long enough with the IC40 on the proper generation amount to replenish the FC your pool uses each day. How are you testing your water chemistry?

The SWCG could care less if it is run 1 hour at 100% or 10 hours at 10%. The cell has a finite number of generating hours. Typically 10000 hours, plus or minus.
