The Best Way to Install a Pool Chlorinator.
Installing a pool chlorinator is a straightforward process, but it’s important to understand the steps involved to ensure proper setup and optimal performance. Whether you’re installing a new system or replacing an old one, here’s what you need to know.
Get the Right Size.
Before installation, assess your pool’s size. This will help you determine the appropriate chlorinator model and cell size to match. If you’re unsure how, read our article “How to Select the Right Size Pool Chlorinator”. Alternatively, consult the manufacturer’s guidelines or a professional to ensure you select the right unit for your pool.
Where to Put the Chlorinator.
Next, choose the best location for your chlorinator system. The unit should be placed near the pool’s filtration system to allow for easy connection to the pump and filter. Make sure the chlorinator is in a location where it won’t be exposed to the elements, as extreme weather can affect its performance.
Installing the Chlorinator.
Installation typically involves connecting the chlorinator to the pool’s plumbing system, setting up the power supply, and calibrating the unit to the correct salt levels. Some chlorinators may require professional installation, especially if complex wiring or plumbing is involved. However, many systems are designed for DIY installation, with step-by-step instructions provided in the user manual. To learn more, read our article “How to Properly Install Your Pool Chlorinator”.
Which KChlor Pool Chlorinator is best for you?
It depends on the size of your pool. To calculate how many litres are in your pool simply multiply the length by the width and then the average depth (depth at the deep end plus depth at the shallow end divided by 2).
Even if your pool is not rectangular in shape, this is still a good way to measure it, as it is always a good idea to overestimate the pool size anyway, so the chlorinator you choose does not have to work too hard to maintain it. Therefore any curves in the pool can be ignored.
