Hi we have bought a house with an I ground pool which has a astral salt water chlorinator. The chlorinator always reads “low salt” even when there’s plenty of salt (by ours and the pool shop levels) and seems to make no chlorine. We have to top up with liquid chlorine regularly and though it’s covered it often reads zero.
we have tried stabaliser-got into a bit of bother with too high and had to partially drain!! Cleaned the cell, ensued the salt levels were right and made sure the pump and chlorinator is running for 12 hours/
the pool shop says replace the whole chlorinator system (without seeing it) for >$1000.Not sure if they are up selling and if there is any way of knowing whether it’s just the cell or the whole thing needs replacement.
many thanks for your help.
