1. what temp does the system shut down and stop making chlorine?
2. will the Aqua Rite still tell me the salt reading to let me know if I need to add anything to the pool for santitation when it does shut down?
3. When the chlorine does get low below 2600, what can I add to it to keep the pool clear? Regular chlorine tablets in the skimmer?
Thanks for any responses.....
I cannot answer numbers 1 or 2.
Your numbers confuse me, as it seems you are posting your salt content, and not a chlorine number. You still need to know a chlorine number, and not just your salt reading. Do you have a test kit? Post your numbers (FC, TC, CC, CYA, pH, TA) and pool stats so someone can further assist you.
Regarding number 3, you can simply add bleach to sanitize your pool. When/if your water temp goes below 50 or so, you will probably not need to add much, if any, as algae growth will be minimal.
