My Insnrg Chlorinator Isn't Producing Enough Chlorine, Please Help! 

This is actually a really common concern. There are multiple reasons this could be happening, and most of them easily fixed. 

1. SALT LEVELS

This is the most common cause of low Chlorine production. 

Salt chlorinators all require a minimum level of salt in the water to function properly. Insnrg chlorinators operate best when the salt level is between 4,000 ppm and 6,000 ppm.

Have your chemical levels professionally tested and balance the water accordingly. 

2. WATER BALANCING

Water balance is critically important to the health of your water and will be a significant factor in how much chlorine is required to keep your water crystal clear and healthy. 

Be sure to have it professionally tested and balanced periodically. At least once a quarter for experienced pool owners. 

3. RUN TIME

Often overlooked, especially as we move from winter into summer, is the pump runtime. Your pool pump needs to run for long enough to rotate all the water in your pool once during winter and twice during summer every day.

In practical terms, traditional run times were four hours during winter and eight hours during summer. With variable speed pumps this is regularly increased to 6 Hours over winter and 12 over summer. This will very from pool to pool, but it's a good starting point. 

4. CALCIUM BUILD-UP 

Have you ever seen hard white deposits, collecting on your chlorinators sell blades? This is Calcium. We're not going to solve why this happens in this article, but if you want to learn more, visit our page on calcium build-up. 

Insnrg chlorinators are designed to reverse polarity during operation to deflake calcium buildup. However if your chlorinator sound does have significant calcium buildup it will not function properly and requires cleaning.

5. WHAT MODEL OF CHLORINATOR DO YOU OWN?

There are currently 3 models of Insnrg Chlorinator.  They are the Xi, Ni and Vi premium chlorinator. To work out which model you have there are 3 methods: 

1. The cable label 

2. Product label

3. Product characteristics (Probes = Vi, short blades = Xi, other are Ni)
