“all in one” salt chlorinator. CircuPool’s high performance systems offer escape from the routine of manual pool chlorination and sanitization. The CORE Series uses a very low level of salt in the pool water to continuously create free chlorine, killing bacteria and algae in the water and helping to maintain a sparkling clean pool. Please take a moment to read through the entire manual before installing your new unit. -

Adding Salt IMPORTANT: Before adding salt at any time, ALWAYS perform an independent water test to measure pre-existing salt levels. If the salt level (PPM) in your pool is currently… 1000 1500 2000 2500 3000 3500 4000 4,000 6,000 8,000 10,000 12,000 14,000... -
Page 8: Ideal Water Chemistry Levels
Ideal Water Chemistry Levels It is important to maintain these chemistry levels in order to ensure that the pool can be enjoyed safely, to minimize the amount of effort required to sanitize the water, and to prevent corrosion or scaling. The only unique requirement for a pool with a chlorine generator is the low level of salt (salinity) to be maintained in the water. -
Page 9: Operation
OPERATION How it works CORE - SERIES Think of the as a chlorine generator; set it to create a steady supply of chlorine for the pool, instead of buying and adding chlorine by hand. How it works: Using electrolysis, it creates chlorine from the salt molecules (NaCL) in your water in order to sanitize your pool. -

• CELL LIFE LOW: This LED is illuminated when the Cell is reaching the end of its expected lifespan. Replacement cells are readily available for purchase from your local deal or at www.circupool.com • SYSTEM ERROR: This LED is illuminated when the system is not able to produce chlorine. Please refer to... -
Page 11: Maintenance
MAINTENANCE Expected Maintenance Monitor your pool’s salinity level as frequently as you check your other water chemistry levels. After the system has run for a time, your cell will eventually need to be cleaned due to natural mineral scaling. The system will notify you of this by turning on the “CLEAN CELL”... -
Page 12: General Maintenance
General Maintenance Winterizing Very little chlorine is necessary at low temperatures. The CORE Series will not produce normal chlorine levels at cold temperatures, see “COLD WATER / WINTER MODE” on page 10. This feature extends the lifespan of the Cell. -
Page 13: Installation
INSTALLATION CORE - SERIES IMPORTANT: If you haven’t already done so, it is necessary to balance the pool's water chemistry before the powered on and used. See pages 6 - 8 for more information. The following are instructions for the typical installation using 2” plumbing. If 1.5” plumbing exists, standard reducers can be used to adapt the system;... -
Page 14: Connecting To Plumbing
Connecting to Plumbing Note: To ensure that flow switch gets properly triggered, maximize the amount of straight pipe before Cell, at least 6”. 1. 11 inches of straight pipe length are required for the installation. 2. On the section of pipe where the cell will be installed, use the Cutting Template to mark two lines 7.5” apart. -

120VAC or 220VAC (no internal adjustments are needed). The CORE Series is shipped from the factory with a power cord that ends in a standard 120VAC plug, to allow the easiest installation. When used with variable-speed or other electronically controlled pumps, you may wish to wire the Control Module directly to your power source. -
Page 16: Installation Checklist
INSTALLATION CHECKLIST □ Cell Unions installed and glued into pipe work. □ Threaded Collars on either side of the Cell are hand tight. □ Control Module is wired correctly. □ You have checked and confirmed that Control Module switches ON and OFF concurrently with filter pump, or is energized continuously for use with variable speed pump and flow switch is correctly activating Control Module. -

HELPFUL HINTS For more detailed information and useful tips, visit www.circupool.com/help. Proper operation of the chlorine generator can be easily verified by checking the lights on the control panel. However, if the pool remains cloudy, or the chlorine residual tests low, then the chlorine being produced is being lost due to high chlorine demand or improper water conditions. -
