SWG placement?

[Stevedotsimpson]

Hello,

First off, I love this community. You've saved me so much money and stress already. Thank you all for your kind help.

i just bought a new (to me) house. And it has a chlorinator, not a SWG. Bought a Hayward SWG (40K extra life capacity for my 23400 gallon pool).

i have my electrician lined up. But I was hoping to remove the chlorinator and plumb the SWG in myself.

I don't think I have enough line where the chlorinator is. So I was thinking of installing it on the bottom piping, which is about an 18" run.

I'm totally new to this. So any advice is welcome.

What do you think?

Welcome to TFP.

Install the cell vertically in place of the chlorinator. Do an upside down U with the flow switch on the horizontal leg of the U

For visualization, the link below shows a vertical installation "kit" for CircuPool SWG. You don't need the kit, but his will give you idea of what it looks like. You should have room to mount the the flow switch on the upper horizontal section.

Thank you both. I'll plumb it that way!

Again, this community is so awesome.
