Replacing SWG

[Deb04]

Our SWG finally died at the end of last season. 11 summers, so I think it did great.

PB is replacing it with the same kind when he comes to open the pool next week. The water will probe in the 50’s when we open, so I’ll be using other chlorine methods for a while. Other than waiting until the water warms, is there anything else I need to do? Any break in period for a new SWG?

Nope.
You do realize you can buy a replacement cell and install your self. Cost is ~$550. No plumbing or electrical work.

HI ,
Its recommended for your salt to be dissolved and circulating for 24 hours before turning on the SWG. Other than that, nothing more to do.

We do. You can’t believe how UNhandy hubby and I are. PB is charging only $50 for the install. TOTALLY worth it to avoid the stress.
