Re: CYA for Salt Chlorinator Pools...
Slower flow provides better efficiency. Think of it as longer contact time of the combined chlorines and the "shocking effect" of the salt chlorine generator cell. This is evident in the Pool Pilot's manifold assembly, the Hayward TurboCell body, the various other 2"inlet and larger body designs.
The larger body allows the water flow to actually decrease, thus giving you the slower flow - Higher Efficiency.
The problem is that at low flow, you need to make sure that there is still sufficient flow to activate the flow switch, or evacuate all the air with Gas Trap systems.
Hope this helps.
