Above Ground Automatic In-line Feeder

Above Ground Automatic In-line Feeder

The Above Ground Automatic In-line Feeder is designed to be installed in the return line of your pool or spa. It is only meant to be used with slow-dissolving large or small tablets - no other types of chemicals should be used in the chlorine feeder. 

This chlorinator can hold up to 9 large (3" diameter) tablets or small tabs (approximately 4.2 lbs). It features a dial-type control valve that can regulate the rate of water flowing through the chlorine feeder. Under normal conditions, this capacity should provide at least one week of chlorination for larger pools and up to two weeks for smaller pools. You can easily adjust the chlorine feed rate by regulating the valve setting between FULL (more chlorine) and 1/8 (less chlorine) and the number of chlorine tablets you put into the feeder. This will help maintain the proper chlorine residual for your pool. 

Installation: 

1. This automatic chlorine feeder is for permanent installation in the water return line. 
2. Always install the chlorine feeder after the heater. If there is no heater, install it after the filter. Damage to the heater or filter may result in concentrated chlorine being allowed to flow through them. 
3. The chlorinator comes with 1.5" female threads. Threaded socket adapters may also be used. Use pipe thread sealants formulated and approved for use with plastic connections. Do not over-tighten.
4. The preferred installation is above water level and in-line below filter or heater outlets. An In-line positive seal corrosion-resistant check valve should be installed to reduce the backflow of chlorine gas when the system is shut off. The chlorine feeder must be located below the water level. Provide a check valve to prevent water backflow when opening/servicing the unit.
