Salt Cell Not Working in Jacumba Hot Springs, CA
Low or no chlorine from a salt pool usually means a scaled or worn cell, a low salt level, or cold water. In Jacumba Hot Springs, that is worth diagnosing before it turns into a bigger repair. Because Jacumba Hot Springs pools contend with geothermal mineral scale destroying equipment and plaster faster than desert heat alone would, a technician here checks a slightly different list than one at the coast would. The pros we work with cover Jacumba Hot Springs and can usually get out within the week.
