IMPORTANT NOTICE
FACTORS THAT WILL IMPROVE THE PERFORMANCE
AND 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 “Hand over Session”
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 OPTIMUM SALT LEVELS:
OPTIMUM SALT LEVELS: 4000-6000ppm

ensure optimum sanitiser output and cell life.

covered under warranty.
2. MONITOR & MAINTAIN YOUR CHLORINATOR CELL:
•Tokeepyoursaltwaterchlorinatorinthebestpossiblecondition,regularmonitoringof
the electrolytic cell is recommended. The ‘Cell’ is the clear plastic housing containing the
removable cell head.
•DuringthechlorinationprocessawhitepowderyCalciumscalemaynaturallybuilduponthe
titanium 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efciencyandlifespan.

•IfCalciumscalebuildsuppleasecleanthecell,followingthecleaninginstructions
provided on page 11.
•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.
