Frequently asked questions
Saltwater Chlorinator Installation Gauteng questions
Is a salt pool chlorine-free?
No. A saltwater chlorinator produces chlorine from dissolved salt.
How much salt does the pool need?
The required concentration depends on the specific chlorinator. Test the existing salt level and follow the manufacturer's range before adding salt.
How long does a cell last?
Life varies with operating hours, water balance, scaling, cleaning method and model. Correct care can materially affect cell life.
Can a chlorinator fit any pool?
A suitable unit can be selected for many pools, but volume, plumbing, flow, electrical supply and equipment condition must be assessed.
Why is the pool green even though the unit is on?
Possible causes include low output, insufficient run time, poor flow, incorrect salt, dirty or failed cell, unbalanced water or an algae load beyond normal production.
