Cell Cleaning
We recommend periodic cleaning of the ACE cell to maximize the life of your equip-
ment. To reduce frequency of cell cleaning, use of the Vanishing Act® calcium
remover to keep the hardness level of spa water at or below 50 ppm. The cell should
be cleaned a minimum of every 3 months. A dirty cell requires the ACE system to
work harder than necessary, and can shorten the life of the cell. A dirty cell can also
cause your System Status to register low, (in the yellow) and cause the system to go
off line.
The cell can be cleaned with the Freshwater ACE Cell Cleaner, as directed on the
bottle. If there is excessive scale build up a stronger cleaning solution, like a com-
mercial cell cleaner, or a solution of 1 part muriatic pool acid and 10 parts water, can
also be used.
