Another frog cycler question

[ianwelch001]

Last year I stopped using my frog system and went to liquid chlorine only. Pool looked great, and just opened it and there was no algea in it.
For those who went from a frog to liquid, did you leave the frog cycler in or remove it and add a straight piece of PVC.
I just noticed a small drip leak from the outlet side of the frog threads and it looks like the only way to remove it is to cut it out and plumb a piece in.
Only time I used the frog last year was when I went on vacation for 2 weeks and used an old frog pac and just cut it and loaded it with 1" chlorine tabs and it kept my pool FC high enough for those 2 weeks.
Just wondering if people removed it or kept it

I’d take it out of its leaking. If you need to use tabs on vacation, get a $3 floater from Walmart.

The drip will (hopefully) fix itself. The o-rings / gaskets shrink in the cold. I had a valve dripping yesterday too getting similar cold weather back as you. I'd monitor it to ensure it stays a drip, and see what happens in a week.
