Watermaid Maintenance - Simple Guide
With all equipment it is necessary to carry out periodic checks to ensure correct and reliable operation.
In all cases the Watermaid manual should be read and understood to ensure
reliability and compliance with warranty requirements
The Watermaid system should be checked periodically especially when the swimming pool temperature
starts to rise following the winter period.
The main things to check are the power supply lights are indicating correctly and that the cell is clean
with minimal calcium build-up.
This is most noticeable in hard water areas and sometimes a clean is required depending on how much
calcium is produced.
BEFORE REMOVING ANY PART – ENSURE THE SYSTEM IS SWITCHED OFF AND THE
VALVES ARE CLOSED – INCLUDING THE MULTIPORT VALVE
Cell removal:
1.
The Cell is connected via a low voltage grey power cable to the terminal box of the power pack.
2.
The cell wires must be connected polarity correct for the cell to work.
3.
The brown lead is connected to the brown or red (positive lead) in the terminal box.
4.
The blue lead is connected to the blue or
black
(negative lead) in the terminal box.
5.
The white or centre gas sensing wire on the cell is connected to the centre terminal in the terminal box
Make sure the Terminals are kept tight and dry for efficient operation.
2. CLEANING THE EZYCLEAN CELL:
1.
Unplug the Brass Connector at the Top of the Cell Head.
2.
Unscrew the Top Barrel Nut from the Top of the cell.
3.
Gentle Twist the Cell Head and Pull the centre electrode out from the Casing.
4.
Simply Scrape the Electrode clean with a Plastic of metal device or use a piece of 32mm PVC
Plastic pipe and run this up the Electrode to remove all deposits.
5.
If the Cell is heavily encrusted with Calcium Deposits and both Electrodes are built up. Replace the
Centre Electrode after cleaning and unscrew the bottom barrel nut and remove the entire Cell from the
pipe work.
