- Pentair Intellichlor IC-60
SWG conversion is complete and Intellichlor IC60 has been powered up for about 42 hours and generating chlorine at 10% for 18 hours. Pump running at 32 GPM 24 x 7. So my water chemistry is a little off now and wondering what my next steps should be. Salt level is higher than what we planned and CYA is low for SWG. We took in account salt level of 800 before conversion and Pool Math showed about 3300 for adding 14 bags of salt. PH is lower than typical 7.7 as we were on vacation and using tabs to increase CYA. No tabs now. And it's heavy pollen season here.
FC - 5.5
CC - 0
PH - 7.6
TA - 90
CH - 330
CYA - 50 (rounded up)
Salt - 3800 (K-1766), ScreenLogic shows 3500
Water Temp - 60 degrees
CSI - -0.33
I ordered CYA and plan to increase it later this week using the sock & return method. What else should I address and in what order? Is the salt level OK and let it go down normally with rain, drain, fill, and/or backwash? How accurate is the Intellichlor salt reading vs the K-1766? Thanks!
