It's your pool and you can do whatever you want. Personally, I would not because every bather adds fecal matter, urine, and sweat to the water (sweat is almost identical chemically to urine) no matter how clean they THINK they are.This is why fast acting residual oxidizing sanitizer is needed. Your laws in the UK are very different from ours in the US and products like this are not permitted to be sold as primary sanitizers The risk of water borne illnesses are real. Personally I would not take the chance. As I initially stated I am not a fan of metal based systems for several reasons.

Hey thanks for the response. After the pump turned off, we could not turn it back on via the remote button or the control panel. The pump indicator on the panel shows the pump running both hi and low indication even though it is not. I understand. I will measure the voltage to see if the controller has disabled the pump or the pump itself has tripped. Do you know roughly how long a pump will stay off before it resets if it has tripped? I am sure that is due to temperature and would depend on outside temperature as well so maybe not a valid question. We are currently at 16 degrees today but hopefully it will get a bit warmer this week so I can test the above suggestion.
