I purchased an AutoPilot Dig-36. They shipped the cell only and then the control unit a week later due to a shipping snafu.

I was opening my pool and doing some plumbing so I installed the cell. I did this by gluing in a 1 1/2" reducer.

ONLY THEN did I read on here that SWGs were a bad idea for above ground pools. Oops!

I did not add salt or install (or even open) the control unit.

The pool store refused my RMA request because the system had been installed. In addition, he wrote
I wouldn't be worried about corrosion or rust from a SWG as this is a myth.
The fact is that the amount of salt in your water is so tiny that this would not happen, we get a lot of people skeptic about it but it is only a myth.
So is it a problem or not? My pool does have a steel frame.

Should I install it or Ebay it?
