Your
ChlorKing®
systems is designed to operate 24/7 at max power, and will
give you years of trouble free use if you follow these basic maintenance and
cleaning instructions.
•
Remember, this system produces sodium hypochlorite “liquid chlorine”
from the salt that you have added to the water. It will only continue to
operate correctly if salt is maintained at the correct 5000ppm level. Low
salt will lower the amount of chlorine produced, and cause damage to the
electrolytic cell.
(Warranty’s will not be honored if it is determined that salt has
been run low.)
•
There is a strainer mounted at the bottom of your
ChlorKing®
cell, which
will trap debris and stop it from entering the cell, this strainer needs to be
cleaned regularly.
•
The plates that are inside the PVC cell housing are the most critical part of
the system. You will notice that over time a white substance (calcium
minerals) will build up on the plates, especially at the top of the cell. This
buildup needs to be cleaned by removing the cell from the housing and
soaking it in a dilute muriatic solution (1:5) for about 10 – 15 minutes.
Reverse polarity systems will need to be cleaned every 3 – 6 months.
(Warranty’s will not be honored if it is determined that the cell has not been
cleaned regularly.)
Muriatic acid is corrosive, please follow safety instructions and
wear protective clothing. To avoid splash, always ADD MURIATIC ACID TO
WATER, rather than water to muriatic acid.
•
Remember, the titanium plates that make up the cell are the most
expensive part of the
ChlorKing®
system and are going to need to be
replaced roughly every 15,000 hours of operating time. By ensuring
that salt is always at the correct level, and plates are cleaned
regularly, you will increase their “life”, thus saving you money…
ChlorKing®
offers a wide range of other products that can help you maintain salt
levels in your pool, including conductivity controllers and saturated salt feeders
for those pools that loose large amounts of water.
