Possible Causes
Dirty or scaled FreshWater salt cell cartridge, low salt level, incorrect output setting, failed salt cell.
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Turn off power before removing the salt cell.
- Check salt level: Test and adjust salt concentration to the range specified by Caldera for your model.
- Clean salt cell: Remove the FreshWater salt cell cartridge and soak it in a mild acid solution (per manufacturer instructions) to remove scale, then rinse thoroughly.
- Adjust output: Increase the output setting on the control panel and run the spa for several hours, then retest the sanitizer.
- Replace cell: If sanitizer remains low despite proper salt level and cleaning, replace the salt cell cartridge.
