I just installed a new sensor on my salt chlorinator system. I have been using the standard chlorine method while I was going through the trouble-shooting/tinkering/ordering phase of this dilemma. When I got the sensor installed and turned the system on, it immediately made the return water a white cloudy consistency. It has been doing this for two days.
Any thoughts on this anyone?
TIA
Does it clear up after the SWCG is off, like maybe it's air bubbles making it appear cloudy?
A "sensor" would not itself have any affect on pool water.
Can you provide more specific info about what SWCG you have, and what sort of sensor you installed?
It clears up when I turn the SWCG off.Quote:

Thanks for the info!
What are you considering "normal limits"? Industry standard says the normal range is 7.2 - 7.8, which is quite a spread, when you consider that it can factor into the overall water balance of your pool.
What is your overall water chemistry, so we can determine the saturation index?
Total Alkalinity, Calcium Hardness, Water Temeperature, pH?
