IntelliChlor User’s Guide
Monthly Service
To ensure that the correct chemical balance is maintained in your pool, it is important to perform the following
recommended salt and pool water tests every month.
1.
Salt Level Test:
Check salt display lights on the unit and check that the green “GOOD” light is on.
If the yellow ADD Salt light is on (see page 5), add salt by following the procedures and charts
described on page 14 and 15.
If salt level does not rise after 24 hours, see “Troubleshooting,” page 25.
If the red LOW salt light is on, no chlorine will be produced until salt is added to the pool (see
charts beginning on page 15).
2.
Pool Water Sample:
Take water sample to local pool store for testing.
3.
Stabilizer (Cyanuric Acid):
Test pool water stabilizer (cyanuric acid) level using a test kit or by
having a water sample tested by a pool professional. Maintain ideal range of 50-75 PPM. Follow your
pool professional’s recommendations.
4.
Calcium Hardness:
Test pool water for calcium hardness level using test kit or by having a water
sample tested by a pool professional. The calcium hardness should be between 200 and 300 ppm. If
necessary, adjust the calcium hardness within this range.
5.
Metals Test:
It is recommended that the pool water be tested periodically for the presence of metals
such as copper, iron, and manganese. These metals should not be present in the pool water. If those
metals are present, contact your pool professional.
Cell Usage Hours Meter
IntelliChlor provides a built-in cell “usage hours meter that reports how many hours IntelliChlor has been
operating. The cell is designed to operate for approximately 10,000 hours before replacement is needed or
roughly five years of average use.

1. Press and hold the MORE button.
2. One of the five Output LED indicators (20%, 40%, 60%, 80% and 100%) will be lit, indicating the
hours of usage. The Output LEDs are as follows:
2 000 hours (20% LED on)
4 000 hours (40% LED on)
6 000 hours (60% LED on)
8 000 hours (80% LED on)
