Happy Monday all!
Our cell is 1 year old. I started it up on 4/2/19 when the water temp was 69° and has worked fine since then with temps as low as 65°. Over the last week our Pentair IC40 would off and on display "Cold Water Cutoff” when the water was in the upper 60’s and low to mid 70’s.
Some cell background: I've never needed to acid wash it, there is just a tiny amount of calcium buildup on the edge of one cell blade. I've power rinsed it with a hose every few months, and few days ago when there was a lot of small leafy things in there and they blew out very well. My chlorine production from the SWG seems fine (between 7 and 8 FC), with the pump running 4 hours mid day (with the output at 50%). I’ve not needed to add liquid chlorine since 4/2/19.
Two days ago, I put the system in Service Mode, shut the SWG breaker off, un-plugged then re-plugged its cable. Turned the system on and now the Cold Water Shutoff light is not on (yeah)!
HOWEVER, the low salt light came on. Screenlogic showed the salt level as 2600, and as usual my Taylor K-1766 showed a higher level, 3400. (I’m familiar with the +/- of each, SL and K-1766) Over the last month those numbers have not triggered a low salt light.
I turned off the cell and added 16 lbs of salt, brushed, pumped for 24 hours and the K-1766 showed the level to be 3600ppm. Fired up the cell, and the low salt light is replaced with the green Good light. But ScreenLogic continues to show the Salt Level at 0 ppm. I’ve shut down the SL app, and well as the panel, breaker, etc. The pump has been running for 4 hours now, but SL still shows 0 ppm.
Suggestions?
