What is everyone's SWG chlorinator set at in this heat?

[boohicks]

We have ours set at 60% right now in this Houston heat, but still not producing enough chlorine. Our CYA is 40. I was thinking of increasing the chlorinator but does everyone still add liquid bleach every week instead of increasing the clorinator? I think that if we increase the CYA we would still have to increase chlorine levels. Thanks to all who take the time to read and answer!

I am in the Dallas area and I have had mine up to 70%. Running pump 10 hours. I have it back to 60% now and adding bleach. My cya is about the same as yours.

20,000 gal. pool - water temp 87 - Aquarite running 7 hrs/day @ 40 percent seems to be keeping up, although I may go to 45-50 before long.

I've just been having a private conversation with someone else about this topic. I have 20K gallons in Houston. Pool is 6 months old. I keep running out of CL and have been adding bleach. I run the pump 5.5 hours (up from the winter and will probably go to 7-8 hours soon) at 90% and it's still not keeping up. I'm going to try cleaning the cell.

Btw, my cya is about 60.

I've got an Autopilot SC-60 that was running around 25% on level one for my 20,000 gal IG. I worked it up to 65% over the last two weeks to keep up with the increased usage and sun. Yesterday I went to Level 2 and 25%. I'll try that for awhile.

I did dump in 3 gallons of bleach after the Tropical Storm dumped about 6" of water into the pool overnight on Tuesday. Fourtunately, that will help reduce my CYA down from 100 when I drain it back down today

Robert,
we are in South Florida & were having a problem where no CL was being produced, realized our PH was too high and our aquarite swg wasn't producing. Now have ph under control and voila, we have mega chlorine.
We are trying to find a happy medium ...right now its at 70%. We have 10,500 gallons, full sun all day ..... cya about 60-70.
