Adding a SWCG and need help

[JimK]

I've had an Aqua Rite SWCG since 2004 and have been very satisfied with it.

Make sure you get a unit with a cell rated at least twice the gallons of your pool.

That Taylor salt test kit is generally the one that's recommended. Personally, I've found the AquaChek salt test strips to be accurate enough.

Also, to maximize cell life, the SWCG should only be used to maintain proper FC level. If you need to boost FC for any reason, use bleach or liquid chlorine to do so.

You might want to consider pH doser with the SWCG to counter the likely upward drift of the pH (depending on your TA level as well)
How about the pool pilot nano?

I have the SGS Breeze 540 system on my pool and have not had any issues in 7 years. 2 things i like about it over the previous unit are the clear cell tube allows you to see when the cell gets dirty (and see if it is not producing chlorine) and the cell can be cleaned using a wood paint stir stick. No acid. I feel the acid approach to cleaning them degrades the cells life.
