Maintenance
How do I clean the electrolytic cell of the Flowclear Chlorinator?
Close Me
The electrolytic cell needs periodic manual cleaning due to existing minerals in the water, which may result in scale accumulation on the titanium plates. To extend the life and performance of the electrolytic cell, it is recommended to inspect the electrolytic cell every month and clean it if necessary as outlined below:
First step: unplug the spa from the power outlet before operating on the electrolytic cell.
Second step: remove the filter set and install the stopper inside the spa to prevent water from flowing when disassembling the chlorinator.
Third step: unscrew the three screws on the chlorinator's transparent cover located on the side of the spa pump. Disconnect the cable that you find back from the transparent cover, and use the provided wrench to open the gear that looks at the electrolytic cell. When the gear is removed, pull out the electrolytic cell. IMPORTANT: due to the water, pulling out the electroliyic cell may be a little hard. Don't worry and pull out using more strength. Don't use any tools to avoid damaging the plastic part or the gasket.
Fourth step: once it's out, take a visual inspection of the electrolytic cell to see if there are any scales (light colored crusty or flaky deposits) on the titanium plates. If there are no scales, reinstall the electrolytic cell inside the housing.
IMPORTANT: the electrolytic cell has a pin, and there is only one position to put it back into the housing.
Fifth step: if scales were found on the titanium plates, try to flush them out with a high-pressure garden hose. Do not use any metal tools because this will scratch the coating off the plates. If the scale on the plates cannot be removed, prepare a solution of 50% water and 50% table vinegar and submerge the electrolytic cell for 3-4 hours.
IMPORTANT: eliminate residual scale or vinegar. For more information see the below video and the technical file.
