Removing Scale from Elements
Unsnap chlorinating cell from housing. Fill a deep container such as a bucket with 1 part white vinegar to 2 parts water. Immerse the chlorinating cell
only (NOT the housing) and let it sit for 30 minutes. Hose off and inspect cell – do not scrape the white mesh or the cell.
All scale (cake-like white mineral buildup) should have dissolved. If scale remains, change cleaning solution and repeat process and proceed in 30 minute
intervals. DO NOT SCRAPE SCALE WITH ANY TYPE OF TOOLS OR BRUSHES AS IT WILL DAMAGE TITANIUM COATING AND VOID
WARRANTY. THE WARRANTY WILL BE VOIDED IF THE CELL HAS BEEN CLEANED TOO LONG OR IF IT HAS NOT BEEN CLEANED IN A
TIMELY MANNER. IF THE TITANIUM COATING IS REMOVED FROM THE CELL THE WARRANTY IS VOIDED.
To reinstall, rewind wire around spool neatly. Replace cell into housing. Replace locking pin and replace front Cover. Plug unit in GFCI outlet.
It is preferable to remove the entire ChlorEase system for winter. Simply reverse the installation procedure and store the system in a shed or garage.
ALWAYS CLEAN THE CELL BEFORE THE WINTER!
If you do not remove the entire system for winterization, the ChlorEase housing and cell must be removed from the pool. The unit will be damaged if left
in freezing water and should be removed following the instructions for cleaning the cell (above).
Use some twine or wire ties to attach the housing and cell securely to the cable that holds the cover onto the pool. Secure it in a way that the housing and
cell will not swing around in the wind and cause damage.
NOTE: FAILURE TO REMOVE CELL FROM WATER FOR WINTERIZATION WILL VOID THE WARRANTY

Regular Water testing
Test your pool water weekly just as you would with any chemical maintenance program for your pool. The production of chlorine by ChlorEase is
directly affected by how well water balance is maintained (pH, Total Alkalinity and Calcium Hardness). IF PROPER WATER BALANCE IS NOT
MAINTAINED, CORROSION AND/OR SCALING CAN OCCUR IN THE ENTIRE POOL ENVIRONMENT AND WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.
If bubbles are NOT rising from the submerged part of the unit, follow these troubleshooting tips:
Unplug the unit and verify that you have power at the socket. Use a voltmeter to determine that you have 115vac output from the socket. If a voltmeter is
not available, use a lamp or other appliance to verify that There is enough voltage being supplied to the socket. If there is no supply voltage, either repair
the socket or Plug the ChlorEase in elsewhere.
If the socket is active, call 1-732-730-9880 for service.
