Mac, I had SWG and was going on my third one in about 8 years when I said screw this and went to floaters. My pool builder went belly-up within days of my pool being finished. I had no training and just winged it, so I'm sure I was not maintaining things correctly. I still have some salt build up on coping and the overflow from my spa. My CYA is through the roof and as soon as it warms up a bit, I'm having RO done on the water to get everything to zero and start over. I also have stain issues, but that's in another post.
Thanks for the responses.
