My pool is pump, filter, heater, and SWG. The heater specifically states that the SWG be installed after the heater. You want the pump before the filter. You wouldn't be able to filter to waste if the pump was after the filter.

That is a great help!!! thank you both. Homebrewale, my filter and pump are together so that works fine for me. I did do a search on the forum and the nearest thing I could find was this post and the chap in it mentions that heat kills chlorine? Is this correct? Although when I read it he/she seems to be confirming the same order i.e. filter/pump, heater, SWG. So is it OK that hot/heated water is running through the SWG?

SWGs are designed to work in places like Southern California and Arizona where the air temperature in the summer is probably higher than the water temperature coming out of a pool heater in the UK. Don't worry about the heat.
