Pros and cons of trial-and-error and predictive chlorination practices

Chlorination practiceProsCons
Manual, dynamic feed on experience Less costly For small pools only; difficult to maintain residual chlorine 
Automatic, dynamic feed on ORP controller Less manpower May fail to maintain residual chlorine at all times 
Automatic, dynamic feed on timer Less manpower May fail to maintain residual chlorine at all times 
Predictive, dynamic feed on chlorine demand For both small and large pools; easy to maintain residual chlorine Requires projections on the daily number of bathers and use of a sound chlorine consumption per capita coefficient
