MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Your
Pool Pilot® Professional
systems is designed to operate 24/7 at max
power, and will give you years of trouble free use if you follow these basic
maintenance and cleaning instructions.
• Remember, this system produces sodium hypochlorite “liquid chlorine”
from the salt that you have added to the water. It will only continue to
operate correctly if salt is maintained at the correct 5000ppm level. Low
salt will lower the amount of chlorine produced, and cause damage to the
electrolytic cell.
(Warranty’s will not be honored if it is determined that salt has
been run low.)
• There is a strainer mounted at the bottom of your
Pool Pilot®
Professional
cell, which will trap debris and stop it from entering the
cell, this strainer needs to be cleaned regularly.
• The plates that are inside the PVC cell housing are the most critical part of
the system. You will notice that over time a white substance (calcium
minerals) will build up on the plates, especially at the top of the cell. This
buildup needs to be cleaned by removing the cell from the housing and
soaking it in a dilute muriatic solution (1:5) for about 10 – 15 minutes.
Reverse polarity systems will need to be cleaned every 3 – 6 months.
(Warranty’s will not be honored if it is determined that the cell has not been
cleaned regularly.)
•
Remember, the titanium plates that make up the cell are the most
expensive part of the
Pool Pilot® Professional
system and are going
to need to be replaced roughly every 15,000 hours of operating time.
By ensuring that salt is always at the correct level, and plates are
cleaned regularly, you will increase their “life”, thus saving you
money…
AquaCal AutoPilot, Inc.
offers a wide range of other products that can help you
maintain salt levels in your pool, including conductivity controllers and saturated
salt feeders for those pools that lose large amounts of water.
