Spa Chlorine Generators

Possible confusion over power level settings

October 2nd, 2008

When the power level is set to 10 on the ColorChlor or TechniChlor, the unit will always be on except when in a light show. Power level 10 also doesn’t use temperature compensation.

If you use your SPA every day, and keep the power level set to 10, there is a good chance that the chlorine level is just right. If you don’t use your SPA for a couple days there is also a good chance that at this power level it will make too much chlorine when it isn’t used as the unit will be on all the time. If you set the power level to 6, then when you use your SPA the boost mode will keep it on for 24 hours after the light show which is like power level 10 for one day. Then if you don’t use your SPA for a couple days there will likely not be too much chlorine production. Note that power levels 6 through 9 will all be on for the full 24 hours after a light show which is the boost mode. The boost mode will increase the on time by 3.

The power levels chlorine production on times are:

PL 10: ON 100%, no temperature compensation.

PL 9: ON 83%, boost level 100% for 24 hours

PL 8: ON 68%, boost level 100% for 24 hours

PL 7: ON 51%, boost level 100% for 24 hours

PL 6: ON 34%, boost level 100% for 24 hours

PL 5: ON 25%, boost level 75% for 24 hours

PL 4: ON 16%, boost level 48% for 24 hours

PL 3: ON 8%, boost level 24% for 24 hours

PL 2: ON 4%, boost level 12% for 24 hours

PL 1: ON 0.5%, boost level 1.5% for 24 hours
