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. Total Alkalinity Test: Test pool water for total alkalinity with a test kit. Adjust according to your
pool professional’s recommendations. 80-120 PPM APSP Standard.
4. 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.
5. Calcium Hardness: Test pool water for calcium hardness level using test kit or by having a water
sample tested by a pool professional. If necessary, adjust according to your pool professional’s
recommendations. APSP standard of 200-400 PPM is recommended.
6. 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 the your pool professional.
Cell Usage Hours Meter
