Help - problems with Bioguard MS11

[kevinm]

Well, the morning test results are in.

Sat Idx: .1
TDS: 5000
CYA: 74
Tot Chlorine: 5
Free Chlorine: 5
PH: 7.7
Demand drops: 1
Tot Alk: 125
Adj Alk: 103
Hardness: 165
Salt: 4200
Borates: 30

So, it looks like my fears were right and the cell is bad - and I've over added salt - do you think this is too high or can I live with this?

No visible scale on the cell, I let it soak in the diluted acid for over 20 minutes. I'm surprised it is bad already, according to the documentation this is the beginning of the fourth season, and the first was a very short one - so usage wise this would be the beginning of the third.

I've ordered a new cell, should have by mid next week.

Anything else you think I should do?
