control dial on the front of the Eco Clean. This will determine the length
of each cycle.
i) If the dial was set to 100% then the cell would be producing chlorine
for the entire 30 minutes. Once the 30 minutes is up the cell would
reverse the polarity and then it would run for another 30 minutes.
ii) If the dial was set to 50% then the cell would be producing chlorine
for the 15 minutes and then it would be off for 15 minutes. Once the 30
minutes is up the cell would reverse the polarity and then it would run
for another 15 minutes. The reverse polarity function is designed to
maximize the cell’s ability to manufacture chlorine or bromine.
This dial should originally be set around 75%. Based on the water chem-
istry the first few days this can be adjusted until you find the correct
setting for your usage.
SECTION 03
PREPARATION, MONITORING AND OPERATION
Manually balance the spa water chemistry to meet all suggested ranges
of water balance factors listed below before startup of the EcoClean unit.
Fill your spa following instructions in your Owner’s Manual. Upon a fresh
fill of the spa you need to perform the following steps:
1) Completely balance the spa’s water (as if there was no Eco Clean
installed)
a. Sanitizer (Chlorine between 1ppm - 3ppm) (Bromine between
2ppm – 3ppm)
b. pH must be between 7.2 and 7.6
c. Alkalinity should be between 80ppm - 120ppm
d.
Calcium hardness should be between 150ppm – 200ppm
2) Once the water is in full balance you will need to add the salt. (If
you want to be running with a Chlorine system then you will need to
use a Sodium Chloride and if you want to be on a bromine system
then you need to use a Sodium Bromide). You need to ensure that the
salt that you are using does not contain any Iodine or YPS. Chemicals
can be obtained from any authorized dealership. At this point you will
add the salt to the water when pumps are running. You want to have
between 2200ppm – 3000ppm of salt. Once the salt has been added
allow the salt to completely dissolve (15-20min) then you will need to
re-adjust the pH level in the water.
3) You can now plug the Eco Clean into the pack (If not plugged al-
ready). This is a 120VAC application (should be on the audio/video
plug). This will allow the unit to receive power 24hrs a day. Once this
is connected and pump#1 is running you will see the ozone knob glow
with a slight blue/green tinge. The Eco Clean light will also begin to
blink Green for up to 30 seconds. During this time the EcoClean is
measuring the salt content of the water.

4) If the light stays Green then the unit is now running and converting
salt to sanitizer. If the light goes Red then there could be a problem
with the salt levels or the Cell itself.
NOTE:
Maintaining constantly high level of salt and bromine above the
recommended range can contribute to corrosion of the pool equipment.
Salt level exceeding the recommended concentration can be reduced by
diluting the spa water with fresh water.
NOTE:
Heavy uses of spa (excessive contamination) may require longer
recovery times. Recovery time may be reduced by adding a shock com-
pound to the water. Follow instructions of the shock compound being
used.
MANUAL CLEANING OF CELLS
In normal conditions the EcoClean unit should not require manual clean-
ing. If manual cleaning is required, check water chemistry for possible
imbalances or call the Dealer for consultation.
Use the following procedure:
STEP 1
Remove the cell.
STEP 2
Using a bucket, add 1 part muriatic acid to 4 parts of water.
PUT WATER IN BUCKET FIRST.
STEP 3
Submerge the cell in the solution.
STEP 4
After 10-15 minutes of foaming, remove the cell. Rinse with
fresh water.
STEP 5
If cell blades still have white crusty scale deposits on them,
repeat the process, not to exceed 15 minute intervals.
CAUTION
Always add acid to water, never water to acid.
NOTE:
DO NOT try to remove any scale from the cell blades with any
tools. This may scratch or damage the coating on the blades and will
VOID WARRANTY.
BOOST OPTION
There is also a “BOOST” button on the system. This feature should only
be used when there is a large increase in usage. If the bather load is 2
people twice a week and you end up having 8 people use it on a Friday
night, then it is suggested that the “BOOST” button be pressed at the end
of the night. This button will override the dial setting and automatically
take the output to 100% for the next 24 hours.
POWER SUPPLY AND CELL
The power supply should be plugged into an 110VAC (Audio/Video)
outlet on the circuit board. Cell is equipped with a DC cord. Cell is in-
stalled in a spa near the equipment area for easy access to the cell.
