Initial cost of an SWG?

[Bleach=Chlorine?]

I would think the difference in cost would be significant! A di-chlor feeder requires you to dump stabalized chlorine (yuck!) into it all summer. The SWG is creating the chlorine from saltwater so there is a lot more going on.

From what I hear on the board it isn't that much of a DIY project, and I know SWGs can be found for $500-1000 so that seems a bit excessive.... I am not an SWG expert though!!

IIRC, when I had my pool built, the credit for deleting the feeder was about $200 and the SWG was about $1000-$1200. I expect the actual cost of the feeder was a little more, but they would only credit me $200 to drop it from the package.

This might not apply to you but my incremental cost for a SWCG was only $400. That is because I chose the AquaLogic system controller for my pool and I only had to buy the cell which was $400. The controller was about $900 at the time.
