Leaning towards the off-line feeder but wanted to see if others had a different suggestion since in-line is preferable by default:
In-line chlorine feeders (that I found) have 2" piping and further restriction in the middle (maybe 1.5" or less) that may be a bottle-neck? I have small 11,000 gallon pool but 9 jets that require occasional high flow (20-to-90GPM); thus my piping is 2.5". I could have pressure based check-valve to bypass extra flow but it would complicated things significantly.
Down the road planning to transition to salt-water system and keep chlorine feeder as a back up. This is another reason to keep it off-line and not restricting flow?
is there any compelling reason to have in-line feeder in-light of the arguments above?
