If the low salt alarm, or low salt cut-out is triggered, raising the salt concentration back to within range will
automatically clear the alarms.
Chlorine production
The EcoMatic unit must be run daily to generate enough chlorine to sanitize the pool. If the level is too low
either longer running times are required, or the system control needs to be adjusted higher. Harsh local
conditions such as traffic pollution or windborne dust require different running times, in which case seek
advice from your pool shop. Without enough filtration/chlorination, your pool will never function correctly.
Always run the filtration system when swimming in the pool.
In some cases, you may find your chlorine level to be too high. To determine if this is the case, run your
chlorinator for the suggested times/chlorine production level and test your pool water on the morning after
operation. If your chlorine test shows a high level of chlorine, either the running times can be reduced
slightly, or the system control can be turned down (anti – clockwise). Test your chlorine level again the
following morning at around the same time. If your chlorine level is still high, repeat the above process until
the correct level is attained.
Super Chlorination:
Periodically, especially during extremely hot conditions, it may be necessary to
boost the amount of chlorine in your pool in order to maintain absolute sanitation of the water. This can be
achieved by adding either liquid or granulated chlorine. If granulated chlorine is added, the cell must be
checked regularly, since the additives from this product may clog the electrodes. Alternatively, extend the
running time of your EcoMatic.
