F. Super chlorinate function

The super chlorinate button automatically boosts chlorine levels for a period of 24 hours.

During this time it is safe to swim. Superchlorinating should not be part of regular

maintenance. Use the function only in situations of increased bather load, or if experienc-

ing trouble (see Troubleshooting section). If your chlorine levels are appropriate (1-3 ppm),

superchlorinating on a regular basis is not necessary and will raise pH levels and reduce the

life of the cell.

G. Regular maintenance checks.

Daily:

· Check the free chlorine.

· Check the total alkalinity. Adjust if necessary.

· Check the pH of the water. Adjust if necessary

Weekly:

· Visually check the cell electrodes. Only if necessary, remove the cell and flush with a

garden hose to remove any debris that may have passed through the filter and lodged in

the cell housing. Avoid inserting objects into the cell which can scratch or bend the cell

plates.

· Check the pressure gauge on the filter to see if backwashing is necessary.

Monthly:

· Check the salt concentration of the pool (see ‘Salt: When And How To Add It’).

· Check the chlorine stabilizer reading. Adjust if necessary.

You should always test the chlorine levels of your pool before each use.

NOTE: Maintaining constantly high levels of salt and chlorine above recommended range

can contribute to corrosion of the pool equipment. Salt levels exceeding the recommended

concentration can be reduced by diluting the pool water with fresh water.

Do not add pool chemicals directly to the skimmer. This may damage the cell.

H. Spring start-up

The output of the cell is determined by water temperature, salt level and mains voltage. In

the springtime when the water temperature of the pool may be below 18ºC (65°F) the Add

Salt light may light up. The add salt light is only reliable at temperatures above 18°C (65°F)

because the temperature affects the conductivity of the water. There is no need to add salt

if the level is already at 4000 ppm. In cold water there is very low chlorine demand because

of low bather load, therefore the chlorine output should be set to minimum or you may not

need the chlorinator on at all.

I. Backwashing pool filter

When backwashing your pool filter turn off the chlorinator by pushing the on/off button.
