Salt Water Chlorine Generator

[blonde_b_tan]

I purchased a salt water system (chlorine generator) and have a question that Polaris has yet to answer either in their documentation or emailed question. Is it required that the cell be installed downline from the filter or can it be installed upline from the filter? I have a space issue and plumbing
for installing the cell downline will be a problem. I've attached a photo of the pump set up. Also, can anyone identify what is what? This is a new (to me) home and pool and I am wanting to know all I can about this plumbing setup and pool. i.e. Which way do I turn the Jandy valves when I want to vacuum? My signature will indicate all my pool specs. There are additional eyeball jets located behind seating area in pool. (that will likely explain the Jandy downline from the filter)

Maybe a photo form a little farther away would help more. It is hard to see what runs where. Sorry I couldn't be of any real help.

I'm sorry about that. Here is another. Thanks for any help you could throw my way. I appreciate it.

Cheers

Had to compress image a bit more.

Thanks

Can't really speak about the Polaris unit specificlly but all the SWG cells that I am familiar with are plumbed after the pump/filter/heater on the return to the pool. Same as an inline chorinator would be. You have to realize that the chlorine level in the cell is very high when it is generating (sort of a 'supershock') and that level of chlorine would not be good for the equipment.

From the picture you should have plenty of room to do some re-plumbing for your SWC (IMHO).

PVC is cheap, and really easy to work with (if you have the right tools and you spend some time thinking about your setup). I'd think you could solve your problem for less than $25.
