How to Clean Your Chlorine Generating Salt Cell

Step 1: Deactivate the pool pump to stop water flow.

Step 2: Loosen the unions on each end of the cell, they should only be hand tight. If the unions are too tight, a strap wrench may be useful as it gives a better grip yet won’t damage the cell housing or unions.

Step 3: Once the cell is removed from the plumbing, look down the center at the series of plates to see if there is a white chalky build up (calcium deposits). If present, you can either use anything NON METALLIC – wood or plastic is the safest as it should be soft enough to avoid scratching the plates, yet strong enough to break up minor deposits. If the cell needs more cleaning then just scraping, submerge the entire PVC portion of the cell into 3 parts water and 1 part muriatic acid. This will begin to fizz, leave the cell in this solution until the fizzing subsides, usually 5-15 minutes depending on how calcified the cell may be. Although the cord can be submerged, be sure that the connector does not come in contact with the solution. Once done, rinse the cell off with a garden hose. WARNING: It is strongly advised that anyone cleaning the cell in this manner use protective clothing and proper eye protection when working with acid – also, always add acid to water, not water to acid!!!

Step 4: Reinstall the cell into the plumbing by threading the unions back onto the cell, be sure to make these connections only hand tight, just tight enough to allow the o-rings to seal tight enough to prevent leaking.

Step 5: Reactivate system and check salt content, call Klapprodt Pools at 817-431-1847 if problems persist.

Beat the Heat with a Fog System

Klapprodt Pools has the perfect solution for this ridiculous Texas heat... a fog system by FOGCO! This system helps cool the backyard while creating an incredible fog effect. Check out this video featuring a custom backyard by Klapprodt Pools. The FOGCO fog system is installed around the perimeter of the cabana and throughout the landscaping.

 

COOLING

Outdoor fog systems have been used in outdoor cooling applications for decades. These systems can provide cooling of outdoor temperatures by up to 40 degrees Fahrenheit with virtually no noticeable increase in the relative humidity. Applications include restaurants, theme parks, hotels and resorts, arenas, tennis courts, golf facilities, fountains, waterfalls, patios, and more.

At 1000 PSI, water droplets as small as 5 microns (5 millionths of a meter) in diameter can be produced. At this level, 'flash evaporation' occurs reducing the ambient temperature. This process of 'Thermal Dynamics', is effective because water requires energy (600 calories of heat to evaporate 1 gram of water) to evaporate. This energy exchange results in reduced temperatures.

The overall effectiveness of the system will depend on existing temperature and humidity levels. With high temperatures (above 80 degrees fahrenheit) and low humidity levels (below 50%) the systems results can be dramatic. As with any evaporative cooling process, the more moisture evaporated, the greater the systems cooling capability.

MISTSCAPING

Mistscaping is a unique method of adding fog effects to water features, walkways, grottos, and garden areas. Created and developed by Fogco Systems, Inc., Mistscaping allows for the subtle introduction of fog into any outdoor application.

The Mistscaping system utilizes a specially designed assembly that can be easily installed in a new construction project or a 20 year old landscape. The system utilizes our Slip Lok fitting concept and because it is not mounted to any structure, the system can be easily and quickly installed throughout a project site.

The Mistscaping riser assembly is attached directly to the feed line which is run throughout the desired area. The special memory tubing used for the risers allows the fog to be directed and controlled for maximum effect. In addition, as the landscaping matures, the fog can be re-directed as necessary.

Utilizing the Fogco 1000psi pump module and specially designed Mistscaping risers, any standard landscaping project can be transformed into a cool and soothing tropical showcase.


Call Klapprodt Pools today or stop by our showroom to discuss the possibilities of a fog system for your backyard!

Voted as Keller’s Best of the Best in 2009, this family owned and operated conglomerate has created an environment like none other in the pool industry. Father and founder, Fred Klapprodt, established the business in 1987, giving his three young boys Joel, Jeremy and Josh, the opportunity to grow up learning the art of building the perfect pool.

DO-IT-YOURSELF
As the company expands, it works harder and harder to offer a benefit to the community at large and does so with a retail division called Klapprodt Pool Supplies. Josh describes this entity as “not only serving existing pool customers, but we use the retail store as a way help an entire community of swimming pool owners.” Get skilled advice and assistance in maintaining your pool and/or Sundance spa. This store is for all the do-it-yourselfers who want to keep their pools and backyards the perfect place to soak up the summer sun. Klapprodt Pools is really a complete package.
