FACTORS THAT WILL IMPROVE THE PERFORMANCE & LIFE OF YOUR SALT WATER CHLORINATOR
PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING YOUR CHLORINATOR
POOL BUILDERS: Please cover this information with your customer during the new pool ÒHand over
SessionÓ
Salt Water Chlorinators are a valuable piece of pool sanitising equipment and must be cared for to get the
best performance and life span from it.
There are THREE main factors that will damage your chlorinator and reduce the life of the product. Please
monitor the following factors in accordance with your installation & operating instructions.
1. MAINTAIN RECOMMENDED SALT LEVELS:
RECOMMENDED OPERATING RANGE: 4500-6000ppm
¥
Run chlorinator at the Salt Levels stated within this document and on the product to ensure
optimum sanitiser output and cell life.
¥
Operating this device at low salt levels will damage the cell and reduce its life.
The control panel displays a red 'Add Salt( LED indicator warning when the salt level is too low.
¥
¥
If no action is taken to rectify the salt levels, damage to the cell may result which will not be covered
under warranty.
2. MONITOR & MAINTAIN YOUR CHLORINATOR CELL:

cell is recommended. The ÔCellÕ is the transparent plastic housing containing the

During the chlorination process a white powdery Calcium scale may naturally build up on the plates in
the cell. Monitor the cell to prevent excessive scale build up. Excessive scale build up will cause
damage to your cell, and dramatically reduce its efficiency and lifespan.
¥
Reverse Polarity models have low maintenance cells that minimise scale build up.
If the salt level is correct and the 'Add Salt( LED

If Calcium scale builds up please clean the cell, following the cleaning instructions provided
¥
NEVER: Use concentrated acid to clean your cell.
¥
NEVER: Leave cell in cleaning solution for extended periods of time
¥
NEVER: Use metal implements, scourers or brushes to clean your cell
3. BALANCED POOL WATER CHEMISTRY:
¥
Salt levels MUST be maintained at 4500-6000ppm for optimum performance and lifespan
¥
Calcium Hardness levels MUST be kept to ideal ranges of 200-275ppm (for Concrete and Tiled Pools)
and 100-225ppm (for other surfaces) to prevent excessive scale build up and damage to equipment
¥
pH levels MUST be kept to ideal levels to prevent damage to equipment and pool surfaces and to
obtain optimum sanitiser effectiveness.
¥
Total Alkalinity and Stabiliser levels MUST also be kept in an ideal range.
