11.0 MAINTENANCE
11.1 Water Chemistry
11.1.1 It is recommended that a pool water is tested by a Pool Professional as per the
following schedule and according to country / state regulatory requirements. These
results should be recorded in a maintenance log.

11.2 Electrolytic Cell
11.2.1 The cell operates most efficiently when it is clean. As a natural result of the
electrolytic process which creates chlorine, calcium build up is attracted to the
titanium plates in the cell. The cell requires regular cleaning to ensure that build up
does not cause individual plates to come in contact with each other. The clear
housing of the cell allows easy visual inspections, however as a general rule the
cell should be cleaned every 4 weeks for non reversing systems.
11.3 Cleaning the Cell Manually
11.3.1 Remove the Cell as explained in point 11.6.
11.3.2 Note: This procedure must be carried out with care in a well ventilated area. Read
and observe the relevant Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) and always wear
Hydrochloric Acid resistant protective clothing. Observe all relevant occupational
health and safety procedures.
11.3.3 With the cell removed use a high pressure hose nozzle to spray off as much loose
scale and debris as possible.
11.3.4 Do not use any sharp or metallic objects to remove scale. Scraping or scratching
the cell plate's edge or surface will allow chemical attack of the plate, cause
premature failure of the cell and will void the warranty.
