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 ideal way is to flip the breaker off to your method so it will not come on automatically while performing this technique. Second, remove the salt cells from the plumbing or it’s chamber. Some salt systems have unions on the salt cells to clear away 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 take away the wires before unscrewing the salt cell the chamber. Also a observe, 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 Tag with muriatic acid. Let the salt cell sit 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 order of disassembly. That’s it you have just cleansed your salt cell!
