    Making Chlorine (Salt Level Indication) When making chlorine, MegaChlor will indicate if the salt level is high, low or normal. If it is low that is OK, you could add more salt if you want, but not required. The salt indicator isn’t a measurement of the actual salt concentration, it is more of a measurement of the power going to the titanium plates.

    MegaChlor includes 10 power level settings that are set based on water volume, usage and testing. The MegaChlor factory setting is 3 (2 hours). The output power to the cell is always the same, the power level changes the amount of time the cell is energized when it turns on.
