General Maintenance

Ensure that the Chlorinator is being used with a compatible pump with a flow rate of between 700 gal. and 4000 gal.
Ensure that the correct salt is being used in the Chlorinator. This will need to be at least 99.8% pure. It is also acceptable to use water conditioning salt pellets (the compressed forms of evaporated salt). This will take longer to dissolve.
Do not use iodized or yellow (yellow prussiate of soda) colour salt.
Ensure that the salt level in the water is 4,500ppm.

Reasons	Solutions
Normally this is caused by an electrical issue	Please ensure that the Chlorinator is plugged directly into the mains socket and not into an extension lead
	Check the socket with other electrical appliances to ensure that the issue is not with the socket itself.

Reasons	Solutions
No water flows out of the outlet valve	Connection valve is closed or stopper plug is inserted	Open the connection valve or remove the stopper plug
	Water pump does not work	Follow the checklist, if this does not resolve the issue, this will need replacing
	Some debris has stopped the water flow inside the hoses	Check the hoses and remove the debris
Flow rate of the pump is too low	Filter pump/sand filter flows equal or beyond 700	Change the pump with a flow rate between 700 gal and 4000 gal
	Chlorinator is Dirty	Clean the Chlorinator using warm water
	Partial blockage in the hose	Check hose and clear the debris
	Water flow sensor is broken	Go through the checklist, if this does not resolve the issue, the Chlorinator will need replacing.
The quantity of salt is too high	Too much salt has been added	Disharge 20% of the pool water.
		Fill in with the same quantity of fresh water and wait approximately 3-4 hours and restart the Chlorinator. Repeat until the salt levels are normal.
The quantity of salt is not enough	Not enough salt added	Add more salt until reaching the quantity as indicated in the manual

Reasons	Solutions
LED failure	Please contact the After Sales team
No Power Supply	Please ensure that the Chlorinator is plugged directly into the mains electricity and not into an extension lead
	Please check the socket with other items to ensure that the issue is not with the socket itself.

Reasons	Solutions
The Chlorinator working time is not enough	The operating time is not set correctly	Check the operating time indicated in table 2 (or table 5 if you pool is not listed in table 2) inside the owner’s manual. This should refer to the water quantity of your pool and environmental temperature. Once you define the correct operating time, set the Flowclear Chlorinator accordingly.
The quantity of chlorine in the pool decreases due to the intensive sunlight	Use the pool cover when the pool is not in use and/or when the Flowclear Chlorinator is in use

Reasons	Solutions
Clogged or dirty electrolytic cell	Poor maintenance – debris has stopped the water flow	Turn off and unplug the Chlorinator. Remove debris screens and put the stopper plugs on. Close the connection valves and detach the hoses from the Chlorinator. Remove the debris from inside the electrolytic cell with a high pressure garden hose (only flush from the direction of the water inlet to avoid damage to the flow sensor; Do not use any metal tool to scratch the plates of the electrolytic cell). Reassemble the Chlorinator.
	Limestone due to hard water on the electrolytic cell	Turn off and unplug the Chlorinator. Remove the debris screens and put the stopped plugs on. Close the connection valves and detach the hoses from the Chlorinator. Lift the free ends of the two hoses upwards in a ‘U’ shape; Fill in the electrolytic cell with a mixture of 50% vinegar and 50% water. This will need to be used for approx. 2 to 3 hours. Rinse out the hoses and electrolytic cell with a lot of water and attach the hoses to the pool and the pump. Reassemble the Chlorinator.

Reasons	Solutions
Insufficient operating time	Choose the recommended operating times per day
Insufficient salt level in pool	Add the appropriate quantity of salt
Chlorine loss due to intensive sunlight exposure	Use the pool cover when the pool is not in use
Poor maintenance of the electrolytic cell: some debris stops the water flow	Turn off and unplug the Chlorinator. Remove debris screens and put the stopper plugs in. Remove the debris inside the electrolytic cell with a high pressure garden hose (only flush from the direction of the water inlet to avoid damaging the flow sensor). Reassemble the Chlorinator
Limestone in the electrolytic cell due to hard water	Turn off and unplug the Chlorinator. Remove the debris screens and put the stopped plugs on. Close the connection valves and detach the hoses from the Chlorinator. Lift the free ends of the two hoses upwards in a 'U' shape; Fill in the electrolytic cell with a mixture of 50% vinegar and 50% water. This will need to be used for approx. 2 to 3 hours. Rinse out the hoses and electrolytic cell with a lot of water and attach the hoses to the pool and the pump. Reassemble the Chlorinator

Reasons	Solutions
Excessive calcium hardness in pool water	Drain 20% to 25% of the pool water and add fresh water to decrease the calcium hardness. Visually inspect the electrolytic cell for scale build up and clean is required
