    Thanks Sean,

    I didn't think about the temperature causing the problem. I know the conductivity of water goes up with temperature but I thought it was less than 10% change over 100 degrees. Perhaps they are using the temperature in the salt ppm calculation and that is where the error arises from.

    Pat,

    Mine has a flow switch as well but always seem to indicate a flow so there must be enough water with the air to keep the switch closed or the air rushing by it is sufficient.

    One more thing, when I watch the salt level, it does not seem to rise until after the air is purged from the panels.
