Questions for a liquid chlorine guy finally tired of the chlorine haul! Converting to SWG Hayward...

[mbschauer]

Long time lurker first time poster... 2 year old IG plaster pool and thanks to this site I've had good success with liquid chlorine. I'm finally tired of adding the LC and was debating adding a Stenner pump but believe I have decided to go the SWG route. My pool was built with a Hayward Omni-Logic controller. My understanding is almost any SWG is compatible? I see some old posts but I'd like current recommendations on the best setup. Complicating factor is my pool is ~37,000 gallons. Do you all recommend 2X 40,000 gallon cells? What would y'all do in my situation? North Texas DFW area.

Follow-ups:
1. Has anyone had issues with backwashing a saltwater pool onto Bermuda grass lawn? I have the DE filter so backwash every couple of months.
2. For anyone still running liquid chlorine- passing along some of the best advice I ever received here was to check your local pressure washing store for bleach. This is the best I've found in the DFW Metroplex...

I would suggest a 60,000 such as the RJ60+.
issues with backwashing a saltwater pool onto Bermuda grass lawn?
My grass does fine on my sand filter backwash and close.

Great decision, especially with a 37k gallon pool in our climate. Get a 60k rated SWCG, such as the IC60 or RJ-60 Plus.

Bermuda is almost impossible to kill. Shouldn't pose a problem.

Thanks for the good advice. I have Hayward Omnilogic. Is there anyway to use the built in controls with this system or do I have to install the digital controller and run in separate from the Hayward equipment. Any 60K system that is plug and play?
