Hi Everyone
When I first joined the forum around June, my Hayward panel was reading salt really low, about 2400. Using the pool Calc, it called for about 1.5 bags of salt, I ended up dumping 2 bags in and it was reading around 4000.
Since then, it's still reading at 4000. The water is noticeably salty and I get salt buildup on our solar cover.
What strikes me as odd as it's been close to 2 months, and if I run my pump at 30% with the T-cell at 50%, my chlorine will actually climb pretty high (9.8 yesterday).
Before joining TFP, I struggled to keep my chlorine above 0 (I didn't even know what CYA was!) and I was dumping a bag of salt just about once a month.
Any ideas? I don't mind the lowered consumption, just find it odd that it's been close to 2 month and my salt is still [too] high and there's obviously no problem with chlorine generation.
