BACKGROUND

Comfort-Chlor is a chlorine generator for pool and/or spa sanitation. It is the workhorse of chlorine generators. The system uses a very low concentration of salt, less than the concentration in a human teardrop, and converts it into free chlorine that kills algae and bacteria in your pool. After killing the algae and bacteria, the chlorine reverts back into sodium chloride. This process of purification continues, making the need to add extra sanitizing chemicals to your pool virtually unnecessary.

The level of necessary chlorine in the pool is affected by a number of factors such as sunlight, bather load, debris and water temperature, all of which increase sanitation and filtration demand.

Filtration

Proper filtration is critical for maintaining clean healthy water. Filtration increases clarity, and the Comfort- Chlor Chlorine Generator increases sanitation and oxidation. It is customarily required in the pool industry that all the water in the pool pass through the filter at least one and a half (1 ½) times per day (~ 8 hours on most pools). During very heavy usage, the filter and chlorine generator may be run continuously.

Inadequate filtration: Inadequate filtration reduces water clarity and makes more work for the generator.

Sanitation/Oxidation

The Comfort-Chlor Chlorine Generator has little effect on pH, total alkalinity, or stabilizer levels. These must still be monitored and adjusted to allow the system to have its greatest effect. If you use a good quality pool test kit and follow the simple instructions outlined in this manual, your Comfort-Chlor Chlorine Generator will help you maintain a sparkling clean, trouble-free pool for many years with minimal effort. See the section titled “Understanding the Chemistry” for more information.

The Comfort-Chlor Chlorine Generator produces a pure form of chlorine to sanitize and oxidize your pool water. The chlorine residual needs to be maintained at 1-3 ppm. This may be tested using a standard kit or by your local pool store.

To generate more chlorine:

1.Turn the Control Knob to a higher setting as necessary, 10% to 100% chlorine production level. See “Power Meter” in the next section for more details.

2.Ensure sufficient run time (at least 8 hours / 1 ½ turnovers) up to 24 hours per day.

3.Ensure salt level is correct and the Cell is clean (see “Salinity Indicator” in the next section).

4.Ensure proper water balance including pH and stabilizer levels (see “Understanding the Chemistry” for recommended levels).

5.Point pool jets down and to the side.

* Summer weather increases demands for chlorine.

To decrease chlorine production:

1.Turn the Control Knob to a lower setting, 10% to 100% chlorine production level. (See “Power Meter” in the next section)

2.Decrease run time as necessary.

Winterizing

Just like the pool plumbing, freezing may damage the system’s Cell and Flow Sensor. If severe or extended periods of freezing temperatures are possible, drain all water from the pump, filter, and supply and return lines before any freezing conditions occur.

Spring Start-up

DO NOT turn on the system until the pool water chemistry has been brought to required levels. See “Startup” section for more information.

CC-550, CC-350 specifications

Aqua Products has established a remarkable reputation in the pool cleaning industry, and their latest models, the CC-350 and CC-550, embody the ideal combination of innovation and user-friendly design. Both these robotic pool cleaners are engineered to make pool maintenance simpler and more efficient, catering to different pool types and sizes.

One of the standout features of the Aqua Products CC-350 is its ability to clean pools up to 30 feet in length, making it a great solution for small to medium-sized residential pools. It utilizes a sophisticated scrubbing system, which includes robust brushes that can easily tackle stubborn dirt, algae, and debris. Additionally, the CC-350 is equipped with advanced filtration technology. The two-media filtration system ensures that both large and small particles are captured effectively, promoting cleaner and clearer water.

On the other hand, the Aqua Products CC-550 elevates the cleaning experience by accommodating pools up to 50 feet in length. This model is perfect for larger residential pools or small commercial settings. Similar to the CC-350, the CC-550 features enhanced scrubbing capabilities, but it goes a step further with its superior navigation technology. It employs a proprietary onboard computer, which optimizes cleaning patterns for enhanced efficiency, ensuring thorough coverage of every part of the pool.

Both models come with an intuitive control system, allowing users to choose from various cleaning cycles tailored to the specific needs of their pool. The programmable timer enables users to set cleaning schedules, resulting in a hassle-free experience. Another notable characteristic is the lightweight and compact design of these robotic cleaners, making them easy to transport and store when not in use.

Energy efficiency is a significant aspect of Aqua Products' design philosophy. The CC-350 and CC-550 operate with low energy consumption, allowing pool owners to enjoy a sparkling clean pool without incurring high energy costs.

Durability is also a priority for Aqua Products, and these models are built with high-quality materials that can withstand the rigors of regular use. Combined with a convenient swivel cable to prevent tangling, both cleaners can operate smoothly throughout their cleaning cycles.

In summary, the Aqua Products CC-350 and CC-550 are standout options for pool owners looking to simplify their maintenance routine while ensuring efficient and effective cleaning. With their advanced features, user-friendly operation, and energy-efficient designs, these robotic pool cleaners make an excellent investment in pool care.
