General Maintenance
Winterizing
Very little chlorine is necessary at low temperatures. The EDGE Series will not produce normal chlorine levels at
cold temperatures. This feature extends the lifespan of the Cell.
If you “close” your pool for the winter, you can continue to follow all standard procedures for your local area.
The Electrolytic Cell will be damaged by freezing water just as your pool plumbing would. In areas which
experience severe or extended periods of freezing temperatures, be sure to drain all water from the pump,
filter, supply and return lines before any freezing conditions occur. The Control Module is capable of
withstanding any winter weather and does not need to be removed.
Spring Start-up
When opening the pool after a period of inactivity, do not power on and use the chlorine generator until the
pool's water chemistry has been balanced and brought to ideal levels. Salt must be added if water has been
drained over the winter.
Replacing the Cell
When the titanium blades inside the Electrolytic Cell have reached the end of their lifespan, replacements are
readily available so that the whole system does not have to be removed. Replacements are easily switched out.
To ensure quality and value, only genuine CircuPool replacement parts may be used.
When the cell has been run for enough hours of operation that it may be nearing the end of its usable lifespan,
the Check Cell LED light will begin to flash. No action is required; the Cell can continue to be used until a solid
warning light occurs. However, enough operation has occurred that you should consider purchasing a
replacement cell. The flashing LED light can be cleared by following the follow the Reprogramming instructions
on the following page.
Whenever a cell is eventually replaced, follow Control Module reprogramming instructions on the following
page.
