IC40 "low salt" light at opening

[shiyang100]

Opened pool last Friday. it has been 4 days, and my IC40 still shows low salt red right. Brought my water to the pool store, the salt level is at 3000. The pool water is around 60F. Is that because of low temp?

S,

Pentair Salt cells are known to read very low when the water level is below 60 degrees... Could also be a bad Flow switch/temp sensor assembly, but I would wait and see what happens when the pool warms up.

Use Liquid chlorine in the meantime..

Thanks,

Jim R.

That's what I am doing right now. Thanks Jim.

Mine consistently reads low salt until the temperature gets up around 70 degrees.
