IC60 Install Question

Currently there is no heater because it's a 1970's unit that doesn't function and stains the pool. It is bypassed.

Can you remove it, un-bypass it and use that space for the SWG ? If it's just sitting there to never be resurrected, it's taking up valuable real estate. If you ever chose to get a new heater, then plan on a *slightly* larger project to do more replacing for both.

PVC and fittings are pretty cheap in the grand scheme of things, say, compared to the SWG or heater costs.

Please, please, please really put out 2 lbs. per day, Mr. Pentair. Meaning a pump run time of 6.5 hours at 100% output will raise FC in my pool by 3 ppm.
