Salt Cell How to
Let’s start with how to clean salt replacement cells. First, turn off your pump by it’s timer clock, switch, control system, or the greatest way is to turn the breaker off to your process so it will not come on automatically while performing this method. Second, remove the salt cells from the plumbing or it’s chamber. Some salt systems have unions on the salt cells to get rid of them from the plumbing. Others have a chamber which included the salt cell that unscrews. If you have one of these with a chamber then get rid of the wires before unscrewing the salt cell the chamber. Also a notice, if you own an Ecomatic salt chlorinator then the threads are left-handed because these are from Austrailia. This means to loosen the salt cell turn the cell to the right. Third, remove the wiring affiliated to the cell if applicable (some units i.e. Hayward Goldline Aqua Rite have the wiring permanently affixed). Fourth, take a plastic bucket or container, fill it with water approxiamately 1/4 full, and then fill the container up to the halfway Mark with muriatic acid. Let the salt cell sit down in the mixture until it stops aggitating. Fifth, very carefully remove the salt cell from the container. Sixth, have a garden hose or another container with fresh water ready and rinse off the salt cell gently. Finally, reverse the sequence of disassembly. That’s it you have just cleansed your salt cell!
