I wasn't asking so that I could continue to use the SWG to chlorinate. I'll do that manually. I was asking if I could get away with fooling the IntellipH into working all winter. I just reread a discussion I got into with Matt. He seems to think my acid demand will drop as my chlorine need will, which should simplify maintenance during the winter. I just know last winter I had to dose acid almost every day. The plaster was just installed prior to winter, and we had plenty of sun, so I'm hoping that was the primary cause of the acid demand. It's still pretty thirsty for it, though, even now, a year after install. High TA fill water and SWG, both of which will cease in winter, so there's hope.
I know I shouldn't fool with the built in systems and safeties, especially while both units are under warranty. I just wanted to hear what I wanted to hear, that I don't have to go back to handling MA multiple times a week/month. I really am spoiled now after a summer with the IpH...
