    The cloudy water condition is coming from the cell. It's not a hazardous condition, just unsightly. You can try sending more water through the cell, lowering your pH, or if the cell is close to the heater outlet and the heater is on, move it further downstream.

    Well, I don't have a heater and the pH is within normal limits. (It doesn't seem to be causing any problems at the moment.)

    Thanks for the info!

    What are you considering "normal limits"? Industry standard says the normal range is 7.2 - 7.8, which is quite a spread, when you consider that it can factor into the overall water balance of your pool.

    What is your overall water chemistry, so we can determine the saturation index?
    Total Alkalinity, Calcium Hardness, Water Temeperature, pH?
