Premium Acid Washing Kit for Pentair Intellichlor Chlorinators

Proper maintenance of your chlorinator's turbo cell is crucial for optimal performance and longevity. AR-PRO offers a premium acid washing kit (520670) that is an ideal replacement for Pentair salt chlorinators such as the IC60, IC40, IC20, and IC15 models. This aftermarket product, produced by CalPalmy (TM), meets or exceeds the performance of original equipment manufacturer (OEM) replacements based on in-house testing, yet it is available at a lower cost.

Generally, it is recommended to inspect your turbo cell every 3 months of operation or every 500 hours, depending on factors like calcium levels and pH of your pool water. If you need to clean the calcium deposits on the internal turbo cell plates, follow these step-by-step instructions:

1. Turn off the power and deactivate the pump.
2. Remove the cell, and if you don't see any visible flaky deposits, you can reinstall the cell.
3. If deposits are present, flush the scales off with a high-pressure hose.

4. In a clean plastic container, mix a 4:1 solution of water to muriatic acid. (ALWAYS ADD ACID TO WATER, NOT WATER TO ACID)

5. Fasten the cell to the cleaning stand with the cord side down, then fill it with the acid solution and let it soak for 15 minutes. Repeat this process until the cell is clean.

6. Reinstall the turbo cell, then press the diagnostic button next to the display for 3 seconds to stop the flashing "inspect cell" LED and reset the timer for the next 500 operational hours.

This replacement kit from AR-PRO is made of premium, heavy-duty plastic, improving the parts' lifespan by at least 50% compared to the OEM version. It is an aftermarket product and not affiliated with or endorsed by any of the manufacturers mentioned.

By following these simple steps, you can effectively clean your chlorinator's turbo cell and ensure optimal performance and longevity of your salt chlorination system. Remember to always prioritize safety by adding acid to water, not the other way around, and to work in a well-ventilated area. Invest in this high-quality, cost-effective replacement kit from AR-PRO to keep your pool water sparkling clean and your chlorinator running smoothly.
