ABSTRACT:
An electrolytic cell for generating chlorine gas and caustic and delivering only these products of the electrolytic cell to the swimming pool. The electrolytic cell is vented above the catholyte, and a catholyte overflow conduit has its inlet at an upper part of the cathode chamber, the overflow conduit being connected to a Venturi. The catholyte overflow conduit has an inlet for chlorine connected to it, which inlet is above the anolyte in the anode chamber; preferably, the chlorine inlet and the catholyte overflow conduit are joined into a single chlorine gas and catholyte outflow conduit which is connected to the Venturi. The catholyte volume is between 41/4 and 43/4 gallons. A hydrometer is provided in the cathode chamber to signal an excess strength of catholyte. The anode is of pressed carbon, having a titanium connector plug. A cation membrane is secured between an annular flange and a ring. A method of operating an electrolytic cell for delivering chlorine and sodium hydroxide to a swimming pool includes the establishment of an alkalinity in the body of water in the swimming pool of approximately 80-150 ppm.
