Hi all - I have the generic Pentair IRCF40 Salt Cell. My Pentair IC40 died during the pandemic and I couldn't find a new one so I went with this and honestly like it more that the IC40. Recently however the salt readings bounce all over the place and I have to re-calibrate it almost daily after my pool pump shuts down for the night (runs 12 hours / day).
Does anyone have any experience with this? I assume its dying but was wondering if a new flow switch would help resolve. I've acid cleaned the fins recently (also had bits of debris caught I cleaned out) and have noticed an improvement for a few days but then goes right back to it.
***Please don't respond with "that's what you get for going generic" - with the pandemic shortage, the price of chlorine skyrocketing, and more than half the price of the name brand I feel I got my moneys worth out of it over the past 4 years***
