Our pool is being installed during august, so its going to be closed relatively soon. How do people with SWCG keep their pool sanitized between 65 and 60 degrees? (Assuming the SWGC stops operation below 65)

The SWCG will probably make chlorine down into the 50’s.
 
Just a little south of you I've made it into Nov the last 2 years. By the time the cell starts thinking about shutting off, daily demand is next to nothing. 3 ppm may last a week. One or two warm days is enough to make the cell kick back on and you're good for another week. Or if that week stays cool, you (finally) dose like a LC pool and next week the SWG helps again.
