CircuPool® Classic Combo (Salt Chlorinator + Pump) Q&A

Question 1

This says it can produce up to 1.4 lbs of chlorine per day. Would this be assuming it is running at 100% output for 24 hours? Just trying to figure out my run time and output settings. Last year I was using about a 1/2 pound to 3/4 pound of chlorine per day before I installed this salt cell View answer

Question 21

I have a 10,000 gallon pool and want to convert to salt. So many questions. It's been 3 years since I drained and replaced 1/2 the water in the pool due to a repair. Should I consider a water replacement prior to conversion ? Under what circumstances should I consider water replacement? Money not an option...which model should I buy? What size? When does increase size not benefit performance for salt conversion power, cell cleaning cycle time, and cell life? Installation should not be a consideration as all would fit my system. Thank you, Bill View answer

Question 22

Hello, What is the minimum flow rate (GPM) for operation for the CircuPool Core series? I currently have a Jandy VSP pump that I run at 1200 rpms that generates 22 gpm. Would the Chlorinator work at this low flow rate? Thanks in advance for your assistance. Have a GREAT Day. Regards, Eric Brown View answer

Question 23

I have a variable speed pump. The question is, when I am at the low speed I suspect the flow will not be enough for the flow switch to read so it will not produce salt. Is this correct? Will this harm the system?If I purchase this my plan is to set the pump speeds to get the chlorine level I need. Pool is 15000 gallons View answer

Question 26

I bought a house with a 26qft pool. I'm trying to learn to control the salt chlorinator (SJ series) for my pool. The water is murky now, with algae. All parameters are ok (I check regularly), except chlorine and free chlorine levels, which are at 0. How do I know that the cell actually works? Is there a documentation regarding the controller? the left bottom green light has been blinking. Also, how is this controller related to the pump? I have Hayward controller for the pump, and I'm clueless here too. Please help. View answer

Question 49

I have the Edge40. After a big rainstorm, the system told me that salt level was low. I added a few bags, and got it tested. Showings 4500 level. I had it running on high and boost for about 6 hours, yet my chlorine levels were still extremely low. I then cleaned the cell by the book and ran it again for a few hours with no change to chlorine levels. Still shows no chlorine when tested. I looked at the cell with a flashlight while it was running. I did see the electrolysis bubbles being formed. Yet after a few hours the chlorine levels did not rise. Please advise. View answer

Question 50

Just received it, and so psyched to replace my 18 year old Aquarite, it looks great. Can I keep the old flow switch from that system that still works fine, or do I need to swap in the new one. Just looking for simplicity in the install. Thanks, View answer
