Once powered on, you’ll want to set its power level (Chlorine Output).
To find the optimum Chlorine Output setting, start at a setting of 70%
and adjust as needed over the initial start up period. Measure your
available chlorine in the pool after two to three days, and adjust the
Chlorine Output level accordingly. If the available chlorine is too high,
lower the Output level; if the available chlorine is too low, raise the
Output level. It will take a few adjustments to find the ideal setting for
your pool. Once set for the pool’s current needs, it should only take
minor adjustments throughout the season.
General Operation
By familiarizing yourself with the operation of the Universal Series, you
can achieve the maximum performance for your pool. There are
typically three factors that you can control which directly contribute to
the free chlorine level that will be available in the pool:
1) The chosen percentage of Chlorine Output on the Control Module
2) Hours of pump run-time each day
3) Water chemistry balance
- Including the amount of salt in the pool and chemicals that
affect chlorine demand, such as chlorine stabilizer,
phosphates, nitrates, and more. See "Ideal Chemistry Levels"
on page 3 for more important information.
After making the initial adjustments to your chosen Chlorine Output
level, additional adjustments are typically only necessary due to
changing seasonal temperatures, or changes in pool use and bather
load. Ensure that your pump runs long enough each day to move at
least two times the amount of water in your pool through the filter
daily. This is typically more than a sufficient amount of time for
chlorination of the pool, but if the pool has high chlorine demand,
running the pool pump longer allows for more chlorination. Measure
your water chemistry and chlorine level on a regular basis.
As you use the system throughout the season, make sure that you clean
the Cell as frequently as needed (see page 13). Once the system detects
that the Cell needs to be cleaned, it will display a “Cell Maint.” warning
light, and then will not be able to create more chlorine until all mineral
scaling has been removed from the Cell.
