I have a Hayward T-15 SWG. It's about 2 years old. I suspect it is going bad because the chlorine output is very low or almost nothing. I added a bag of salt a couple of weeks ago. Instant Salt is at 2934 and Average Salt is at 3537. I need to confirm the salt level with a test but haven't done that yet. There was scale on the plates and I acid washed it two days ago, but still the chlorine level of the pool is at about 1ppm despite running the T-Cell at 50% yesterday and SC mode today for 2 hours so far.
I listed the other diagnostic values below. How do I know if the t-Cell needs to be replaced? What do the values in the diagnostics indicate? How do I know what they mean?
I read in another thread that acid washing reduces the life of the t-cell. I've washed it like this maybe 6 times since owning it. Should I clean it another way?
Cell Temp: 78.1
Instant Salt: 2938
Average Salt: 3537
Cell Current: 5.73A
Cell Type: T-Cell-15
Relay Polarity: K2
Cell Voltage: 25.73v
