If the hypochlorinator appears to be operating but no chlorine is present in the pool water, what could be the problem?

The situation where the hypochlorinator seems to be functioning but does not produce chlorine in the pool water can arise from various issues. Each of the potential problems listed contributes to the hypochlorination process not being effective.

The tubing of the hypochlorinator could be damaged, leading to leaks or inefficiencies in the system. Even if the system appears to be operational, damaged tubing can prevent the chlorine from reaching the pool water as intended.

Another possibility is that the liquid chlorine storage vat might be empty. If the source of chlorine is depleted, there will simply be no chlorine available to inject into the water, despite the equipment being powered on and appearing to work correctly.

Additionally, if the injection fitting is clogged, the chlorine cannot be properly injected into the pool, which would result in no chlorine being detected in the water. Clogs can occur due to buildup or debris, which might not be immediately obvious when observing the hypochlorinator's external operations.

Given these potential issues, all of them can independently cause the hypochlorinator to appear operational while failing to deliver chlorine into the pool. Therefore, acknowledging that any one of these problems could be the reason for the lack of chlorine in the pool leads to the conclusion that all of
