Folks I've stumbled upon something that I now believe is more common.
Twice this week, and 5 times this season (maybe more), a deluge of rain hit during my SWGs 12 hour self check and it tripped the low salt alarm. Had I not caught it, I would have lost 12 hours of production until the next self check.
I've been paying closer attention this year as my first full season with the new pool and that's the only reason I've noticed. Last year I set the SWG to 60% in June and the FC was great whenever I checked so I didn't pay much more attention than that. It could have happened just as often but a few days or a week later the FC had built back up and went undetected.
I did not know this could be a thing, especially for those of us running 24/7.
While not an everyday thing, alls it takes is a heavy rain at the wrong moment. Given enough chances, it can hit a few times a season.
And it's a perfect example why I run hot.
