    Hey Smallpooldad,

    Thanks for considering Pool Pilot.
    As you're planning on running your pump only 4 hrs/day, I would recommend the largest cell...well, ok. I always recommend the largest size cell you can afford. But in your case, it will be needed to generate enough chlorine within the 4 hrs. pump run time.

    The flow is sufficient for the proper operation of the Pool Pilot. The minimum flow is 20 gpm.

    Normal pump run times suggest running your pool enough for at least one circulation of water.
    9,000 gallons
    55 gpm pump
    = 164 minutes for one turnover = 2.7 hrs/day minimum.
    So 4 hrs/day would be sufficient (1.5 turnovers per day). I would recommend that you run the pump in the middle of the day or during peak pool usage.

    With the Total Control system, you will need to keep your cyanuric acid level below 50 ppm, as it will affect the ORP reading.

    Hope this helps.
