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

Question 1

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 3

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 43

Hello. I have an RJ-60+ which is rated at 300W, so presumably it only draws 1.36A at 220V. However, the manual also mentions the cell current ranging between 2.5 and 7.8 amps. I can also see the cell current displayed when I cycle through the menu options. For example, at 50%, it shows 5.7 amps. I'm assuming this cell current is different from the load on the circuit breaker. Can you confirm please? View answer
