Maintenance
Clean the Check Valve and Float Valve at least every 4-6 months, or as
needed, to remove scale or debris
Winterizing
1. Clean chlorination system following instructions below.
2. Close inlet isolation valve and operate pump until no more water can be
pumped out.
3. Shut system down and close the outlet isolation valve.
4. Siphon any remaining water from the solution tank.
5. Remove any debris from the chlorinator or solution tank.
6. Open the bottom drain on the pump.
7. Drain water from feed and discharge lines.
8. Make sure no water remains in the pump, chlorinator, pipe line, or solution
tank to prevent freezing over the winter.
System Cleaning
Over time the chlorination system may develop a build-up of scale. This
should be cleaned on a periodic basis, up to twice per year. If scale formation
is severe, more frequent cleanings may be necessary. Cleaning may be
accomplished by soaking the chlorinator with a dilute acid solution according
to the instructions below.
NOTE: Addition of muriatic acid may lower the pH of the pool water.
Preparation for cleaning
1. Prepare 2 gallons of muriatic acid.
2. Always use appropriate safety equipment while servicing the unit or handling
chemicals.
3. Clean the feeder in a well-ventilated area. Chlorine gas may be released
during the cleaning process!
Inlet/Outlet Bypass
To facilitate the cleaning process a Bypass may be installed between the inlet
and outlet lines to/from the chlorination system. Isolation valves at the re-
circulation line are required.
