Closing the Pool
When closing your pool, you can follow the closing instructions from you pool store or pool service. If
they recommend a closing kit, take note if there is a stain and scale or other sequestering product used
as part of the closing. This product is optional and if skipped, the minerals will keep fighting algae and
microorganisms in the water throughout the winter. You will find that the water is cleaner and clearer in
the Spring when you open the pool.
We recommend bringing the system controller indoors for the winter. If there is still life left on the cell,
you can leave it in the tee, but you must wrap up the plug end so that the winter weather does not
corrode it.
Cleaning and Care
System Controller
Clean the controller with a soft cloth dampened with water as needed. Do not use any type of cleaner
on the front control panel or plastic housing.
Mineral Cell
If your water is high in calcium, the electrode bars on the mineral cell may become coated with a white
or blue scale. Check the cell every 6 months and remove the scale with a standard metal file. The surface
of the bars does not have to be polished.
If the bars are too scaled up for the system to release minerals, the ‘Ionizing’ light on the controller
will flash red.
