This feature tracks the amount of time the ChlorMaker electrode has been actively producing chlorine. This feature tracks the amount of time the ChlorMaker electrode has been actively producing chlorine.
The typical lifespan of the electrode is 7000 hours of chlorine generation. To view the lifespan:The typical lifespan of the electrode is 7000 hours of chlorine generation. To view the lifespan:

a. The following lights will ash to indicate the percentage used:a. The following lights will ash to indicate the percentage used:
• • GreenGreen ( (Salt HighSalt High) = 100) = 100
• • Blue Blue ((Salt OKSalt OK) = 10) = 10
• • RedRed ( (Salt LowSalt Low) = 1) = 1
b. Examples:b. Examples:
• • 5 5 BlueBlue ashes means that 50% life has been used ashes means that 50% life has been used
• • 6 6 BlueBlue ashes and 2 ashes and 2 RedRed ashes means that 62% life has been used (38% life is left) ashes means that 62% life has been used (38% life is left)
