    Not to be the agitator in this conversation but I think your statement lacks formwork and quite frankly you have cemented your bias.....

    just a thought but for $1200 !!!

    you could maybe buy a water container throw it on your low-loader and buy a petrol water pump, then take a few trips to the beach

    check out the scrap machine place on gnangara road they have containers or various sizes pretty cheap

    water from the sea is about 24ppm for a salt pool you want to remain about the 6ppm.

    not sure, never seem one run that high. But they do drain less power when the salt is low so i assume that they may drain to much when the salt is high.

    there is also the posable question of hydrogen, chlorinators dont just produce Chlorine. thats why the chlorinator is last in line and the highest point in your plumbing. i have seen a couple of home plumbing jobs where the sand filter has gone BANG
