I have an inground 12k gal pool with an Ecomatic ESC36 SWG. I am not sure of the age of the cell, since we have only lived here 2 years. The SWG worked great last year, but this year the red lights are on, even after cleaning the cell and checking the salt level.

Is there a way to confirm that your salt cell is shot? I would hate to spend the money and find out there are issues with the controller.

Also, is there any issues with dumping the acid solution used to clean the SW cell back into the pool? I don't want to waste the solution and don't want to store it until the next cell cleaning.


Thanks.
