Good morning,
I am having a hard time maintaining my free chlorine levels. This will be the third year with this setup and I haven't had an issue until now. My pool is approximately 15000 gallon fiberglass and the builder installed a Hayward T3 cell.
Current tests: Using TF100 kit
C = 6.5
CC = 0.5
PH = 7.6
Alka = 90
Cal = 300
CYA = 60-70
Salt = 3300
I slammed the pool last week and have allowed the free chlorine to drift down. I performed an overnight chlorine test last night and passed (dropped 0.5ppm) My recent free chlorine readings are as follows:
Thursday = 11.0 SWG at 85%
Friday = 10.5 SWG at 85%
Saturday = 7.0 SWG at 90%
The cell is clean and the voltage and amperage are within their normal operating limits. I'm wondering if the cell is just too small to keep up with the chlorine loss, but also wonder if that is the case, why didnt I have problems last year?
Thank you for your help,
Chad
