The previous owner of my pool (in sig) had a SWG system in place, but appears to have disabled it at some point.
Pictured below are all remaining components of the system.
If I understand correctly, I'd need at least a controller, and most likely a new cell as well.
Are there any go-to recommendations for DIY-install systems? Seems like there is a significant variance in cost between brands (Circupool Universal40 at 1100USD, Hayward AquaRite at 1500USD, etc). I won't use boost, just something to maintain regular FC (with bleach used for manual adjustment and SLAMing if necessary)
Can I assume the plumbing will be compatible between brands, or do I need to confirm sizing?
Current chemistry:
FC: 3ppm-8ppm
pH: seems to be rising pretty quickly, takes maybe 1wk to rise from 7.3 to 8.0
TA: 160ppm (I'm dropping pH to ~7.0 periodically with muriatic acid to try and reign this in, but haven't seen much change in the two cycles I've done so far)
CH: 260ppm (I am chlorinating with unstabilised CalHypo until this reaches 350ppm)
CYA: 48ppm (recently diluted from 210+ppm)
Current issues:
- Some black mold, which I'm planning to SLAM once my steel brush arrives. I imagine I'll want to sort this out prior to installing?
