Although the cells provided by Best Pool Supplies is manufactured from high quality materials with longevity in mind, over the period of time the electrolysis will wear out the cell coating which will in the end result the electrodes to stop producing chlorine.
Here are some handy hints that help you to prolong the life span of your chlorinator cell:
Calcium deposit (formation of scale) is one of the main reasons of premature failure of the chlorinator electrode. Scale on the electrodes will reduce the chlorine production, restrict the flow of the water and if not addressed it will put unnecessary strain not only on the cell but also on the powerpack and can cause damage to both. It is important to check the cell and clean the electrodes from scale when it becomes necessary.
How quickly calcium builds up on electrode(s) varies from pool to pool and depends on on various factors:
If you your chlorinator is non self cleaning (does not reverse polarity) it is advisable to check the cell once a week (even more often during summer months). If the milky white substance starts to appear on the electrode(s) you know it is time to give the cell a clean.
These days most new chlorinators on the market are self cleaning. These units avoid scale build up on the electrodes by reversing the polarity between the electrodes, repelling mineral deposits, which are washed away by the pool water rushing through the cell housing before they can attach to the oppositely charged electrode. Even if the chlorinator is self cleaning, the cell still needs to be cleaned roughly once every 6 months (more often in hard water areas). Many of these intelligent units advise you when it is time to clean the cell and warn about low salt level in the pool water as well.
To clean the cell:
Switch off the chlorinator and remove the cell from the housing following manufacturer instructions.
NB! Always take extra care when handling chemicals and store them out of the reach of children.
Replacing Zodiac Ei Chlorinator Cell
When replacing this electrode you should reset the cell OPERATING HOURS. The system has a built in HOUR meter recording your run time of the electrode.
If you get a message “CHECK CELL” this does not stop your chlorinator from working but rather a bit of information telling you a cell change is due (similar to modern cars that have annoying hour meters built in).
The CHECK CELL message on your Chlorinator is not always a fault, it is simply to remind you to check your equipment from time to time. It comes up when your cell has done 6000 hours or more.
To reset your run hours (recommended when installing this new cell) or to clear the message please follow these steps:
NOTE: Your chlorinator was still working as normal while this message was on the screen.
