6.6 Winterizing
Very little chlorine is needed in cold water. Below 51 degrees Fahrenheit, chlorine production is not
permitted; operating the chlorinator in cold water might result in over-chlorinated pool water. If more
chlorine is needed,
activating the “Boost” mode will override this cold water feature allowing chlorine
production for 24 hours of operation
.
See
Section 5.1, Using the Front Panel Controls
.
If preventative measures are not taken, freezing water may cause severe damage to the Cell and
Flow/Temp/Salinity Sensor. Prevent freeze damage to the Cell and Flow/Temp/Salinity Sensor by running
pump continuously or winterize pool by draining water from pump, filter, and all intake and return lines.
Remove the cell, clean and store it. Disconnect the Flow/Temp/Salinity Sensor from the power center,
then remove it from the threaded PVC Tee. Wrap Flow/Temp/Salinity Sensor in a plastic bag or protective
covering and coil Flow/Temp/Salinity Sensor and DC power cord cables around the power center for
storage.
An optional Spool Piece is available to replace the cell during winterizing or cell maintenance. This will
enable pool pump to circulate water with the cell out the of line. See Figure 17.
When a FREEZE CONTROLLER is used on pump equipment and the AquaPure is run through the winter,
turn the AquaPure CHLORINE PRODUCTION down to 10 - 20%. Otherwise, chlorine production will
exceed the recommended level of 1.0 - 3.0 PPM.
NOTE
Above 3.0 PPM may cause corrosion of pool metals and possibly cause damage to associated pool
equipment.
