Cost comparison
Has anyone on this forum actually sat down and done a cost analysis between a SWCG and just using standard liquid chlorine, especially over 5 or 10 years? I have been toying with converting to a SWCG and can install myself. Just wondering if it is worth it.

Re: Cost comparison
While I've not done a detailed comparison of manual chlorination vs a SWCG, I'd expect the SWCG to cost more given the high initial cost and cost of replacement cells.
That said, a SWCG has a convenience factor that's worth the extra cost to me. For me, the less work, the better!
